July 2024: Archconfraternity National Conference - Registration Now Open!

Dear Lady Officers,

It is with great joy that we cordially invite you to the 2nd Annual National Conference of the Archconfraternity of Christian Mothers (ACCM)!

Our Conference Committee has been praying and working hard to prepare a special weekend for you, dear Officers of the Christian Mothers.  We hope every Confraternity is represented at this National Conference as a valuable support for one another – an opportunity to leave edified, encouraged, and with new information and resources to bless your local Confraternity.

We are excited to have renowned speaker and writer Brooke Taylor share wisdom alongside our National Director, Fr. Joseph Tuscan, OFM Cap.

We hope you will consider joining us July 26-27, 2024, in Pittsburgh, PA, where the Archconfraternity was established almost 150 years ago!

United in our prayers,
