Eucharist

In the Eucharist, Christ gives us the very body which he gave up for us on the cross, the very blood which he has “poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins.”

“My greatest hope is that the Eucharistic Revival has as its core energy our meeting people where they are and walking with them in meeting the Lord anew as well as we are able,” said Crosier Father Kermit Holl.

“I think that Jesus has really worked on my heart through these many years,” said Kim Flannigan.

You’ve read about it. You know it’s coming. But with a global synod underway, how does the National Eucharistic Revival fit in? What does this mean locally? Why do we need one?

The documentary “Alive” tells the stories of five people changed by their encounter with the real presence of Christ in the Eucharist during Holy Hour. It opens across the United States for one night only April 25.

The newly named executive director of the National Eucharistic Congress sees the revival and congress as “a milestone moment” for the Church and “a generational moment” that can change lives.

Blessed Acutis is the patron of the first year of a three-year eucharistic revival the U.S. bishops approved during their fall general assembly in November in Baltimore

The book about Carlo Acutis shows an otherwise ordinary teenager living the faith with beauty, simplicity and trust and is highly recommended for confirmation-age students; the second book tells the story of Aloysius Schwartz’s journey to the mission fields and living the life of the poor while serving them.
