Collaborator Summit Speaker Schedule

Bringing the World to Jesus through Mary by fostering collaboration among Bishops, Confraternities, Shrines, with Movements and Apostolates as a means of Evangelization in the World.

The St. Louis Collaborator Summit was a once‑in‑a‑generation Upper Room moment — a gathering where a wide array of ecclesial partners came together in true spiritual and missionary communion, laying the groundwork for next year's PAC27 Marian Congress as the Church journeys toward 2033 and beyond.
