Over the next few months, the CNE will host several events bringing together hundreds of people for an encounter with Jesus Christ.
- Tuesday, October 8: Exalt North — an evening of inspiration, worship, and Eucharistic Exposition for youth and their families.
- Friday, October 31: Behold – All Hallows' Eve Edition! — a night for young adults featuring Adoration, music, prayer teams, Gospel
proclamation, and a homily from one of our seminarian deacons.
- Saturday, November 8: Encuentro — an evening of Adoration, music, and fraternity for Hispanic young people.
At the heart of each event is Adoration of our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament. These gatherings are among the most impactful we offer all year, built on a simple but powerful formula: creating space for people to encounter Jesus in the Eucharist. Sean Ater
