Greeting of peace and welcome! It is a grace to serve with you on our common mission. Over the years, CADEIO has been a place of mutual connection, service, and inspiration. As your president, I am grateful for the opportunity to build bridges of interreligious cooperation and ecumenical unity with you and our partnering institutions. As we embrace and work for a more synodal Church and society, I ask that you continue to pray for our organization. Your ongoing support and engagement are essential and deeply appreciated. Together, let us build a stronger and more visible culture of encounter and service, inspiring others to express more fully the Kingdom of God in our midst.

CADEIO was established to
- stimulate the exchange of ideas, experiences and networking among the Ecumenical/ Interreligious Officers of the arch/dioceses in union with Rome;
- promote programs that further the work of Christian unity and interreligious cooperation and provide opportunities for ongoing education and formation in ecumenism and religious studies for clergy and laity who serve dioceses as delegates for dialogue;
- collaborate with the Bishops’ Committee for Ecumenical and Interreligious Affairs of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, and with other ecumenical and interreligious agencies and networks to promote a culture of authentic relationships whose goal is unity and understanding among people of faith.
