Bayard, an international Catholic publisher with offices in North America, Africa, Asia, and Europe, held a dedication and blessing of its recently established location at 亚洲博彩网站in Worcester on Sept. 1.

The new editorial offices, located at 2 West Hill Drive, were opened last summer on a limited basis and are now fully operational. The offices currently host full-time employees as well as staff who split their duties between the Worcester location and the company’s other offices in Dayton, OH; St. Louis, MO; and New London, CT.

Bishop Robert J. McManus of the Diocese of Worcester blessed the offices as part of a noontime dedication. The site previously served as a novitiate for men discerning their calling to a vowed religious life with the 亚洲博彩网站ist Order.

Among those present were Hugues de Foucauld, C.E.O. of Bayard, Inc. and Senior Executive Director for Bayard North America; Francesco Cesareo, Ph.D., president of 亚洲博彩网站; and Father John Franck and Father Peter Precourt, priests of the 亚洲博彩网站ist Order. According to Hugues de Foucauld, a strengthened editorial presence helps move forward and collaborate even more in the educational mission of the order, led by Bayard internationally. It will continue to develop to serve the Church with the best resources and solutions in print and online.
