An Exciting Journey Ahead
Our world is hurting. We all need healing, yet many of us are separated from the very source of our strength. Jesus Christ invites us to return to the source and summit of our faith in the celebration of the Eucharist. The National Eucharistic Revival is a movement to restore understanding and devotion to this great mystery here in the United States by helping us renew our worship of Jesus Christ in the Eucharist.

What Is The Revival & Why Is It Important?
The statistics show that more than 60% of Catholics don't believe in the real presence of Jesus Christ in the Eucharist. Jesus told us on the cross as He was suffering and dying for us that His Soul was thirsting. St Mother Theresa of Calcutta tells us He is thirsting for our souls, you and me. His Heart is passionately aching to unite Himself with us in this life, a foretaste of an eternity with Him. We accomplish this by celebrating Him at Holy Mass, adoring him at Eucharistic Adoration and receiving him at Holy Communion.
When we believe in His real presence and receive Him with this confidence...
...we are strengthened with Jesus. He is the strength we absolutely need to live daily a moral, purposeful life. We can not do this on our own.
...we learn how to have meaningful relationships with others and strive as Jesus did to have a relationship with the Father and each other, that we will enjoy in heaven.
...we have great joy when we are joined as one with Our Lord, Jesus Christ, in the Eucharist, through receiving Holy Communion.
...we find the purpose in life in the Eucharist, which is the source and summit of the Christian life, as proclaimed by the Second Vatican Council .
