Because we are working with the lodge to secure reservations, we ask that you please complete this online form by March 31, 2023 so that we have an accurate count for presentation seating, daily meals, and lodging.  Each priest is responsible for payment of lodging and the Convocation fee in advance.  Retired priests will be paid for by the Diocese, but we still need to know their preferences in advance.
