2025 Diocesan Acolyte Festival

All acolytes, crucifers, and thurifers throughout the Central Gulf Coast are invited to attend. Bishop Russell and other experts in the “liturgical arts” will share their knowledge, skill and wisdom, along with games and a very special closing Eucharist.

The festival begins at 8:30 a.m. and concludes with the Eucharist at approximately 3:30 p.m. There is no charge for the festival.

If your group will need overnight accommodations for Friday night, please reach out to the festival contact at the information below.

For more information on the festival, please get in touch with Carolyn Jeffers at [email protected] or call the Cathedral office at (251) 438-1822.

While there is no fee to participate, we encourage you to consider making a financial gift to the Christ Church Cathedral Foundation.
