This is a parish resource page to help Eucharistic Congress Parish Contacts (usually a parish staff member or a lay volunteer), as they assist their pastor and parish in preparing for and promoting the Eucharistic Congress. If you have questions, please email the Eucharistic Congress Parish Contacts Coordinator at valerie13@catholicexchange.com.

The message in your banner must be in accord with the teachings of the Catholic Church.
Banners should include the name of your parish or organization and in general be a message of praise and worship. Banners may not include a political message or the endorsement of an individual.
Please note: The leadership of the Eucharistic Congress Steering Committee has the authority to reject a banner that does not conform to these guidelines.
Eucharistic Congress banners come in many wonderful shapes, sizes and colors.
Many people will be far away from your banner and in order to make it readable, it should be BIG.

Poles:
Long Pole – 12 feet long
Cross Pole – 4 feet 6 inches
Banner Stand:
5 Gallon plastic bucket
