The Regional Director for Communities begins Friday a visit to the United States of America and Canada to participate in the Holy Spirit Festivities in San Diego, California, and in the celebrations of the Region’s Day in Montreal, Quebec.
 
In San Diego, a city with a significant presence of Azoreans, Paulo Teves will participate, at the invitation of United Portuguese Society of Espirito Santo, in the Holy Spirit Festivities, one of the oldest celebrations held in the state of California.
 
On Friday, June 2, the Regional Director for Communities will attend the hoisting ceremony of the Holy Spirit Flag. On the following day, he will participate in the Mass and Coronation and, later, in procession at the Church of Saint Agnes.
 
On June 4, Paulo Teves participates in the parade of the Holy Spirit Festivities of San Diego, which marks this year the 107th edition.
