In the Catholic Church in the United States, National Vocation Awareness Week is celebrated November 3-9, 2024. It is an annual week-long dedicated to promote vocations to ordained ministry and consecrated life through prayer, invitation, education, and to also renew our prayers and support for those who are considering these vocations. 

The Eparchy's 2024 Benefit Dinner brought together people from all over to support our Eparchy of Saint Maron of Brooklyn. Two lovely couples were honored for their hard work and continued service to our church and community.  A portion of the proceeds of the dinner will go to help Lebanon.
