SEPTEMBER 3–6, 2026

ST. LOUIS COLLABORATOR SUMMIT

The St. Louis Collaborator Summit is a once‑in‑a‑generation Upper Room moment, convening a wide array of ecclesial partners who are joining together in a concrete and practical way as the catalyst for The St. Louis Document, a work that has the potential to shape evangelization in the Church as we journey toward 2033 and beyond.

Pope Leo XIV’s decisive call for unity stands as both a confirmation and a catalyst for the Road to Jubilee 2033 — a moment signaling the dawn of a renewed chapter in the life of the Universal Church, one animated by hope, meaning, and purpose.

St. Louis 2026 becomes the first gathering point for Collaborators committed to advancing the mission of Bishops, Confraternities, Shrines, Movements, and Apostolates as dynamic instruments of evangelization across the world. This shared effort aligns closely with the vision entrusted to the Dicastery for Evangelization, inviting a deeper communion of purpose and action.

This preparatory COLLABORATOR SUMMIT — preceding the first large‑scale encounter at TD Place Stadium in 2027 — will offer a rich environment for collaborator presentations and strategic dialogues, and moments of encounter that anticipate the broader Cape Club experience envisioned for PAC27 in Ottawa. It marks the beginning of a coordinated journey toward a global expression of unity, witness, and missionary creativity.
