I am the living bread that came down from heaven; whoever eats this bread will live forever; and the bread that I will give is my flesh for the life of the world.

From 2022 to 2024, the Bishops in the US are calling to a renewed faith in the Eucharist. It will conclude with a Eucharistic Congress in July 2024. You can find more information here: eucharisticrevival.org

In communion with the Bishops, we propose to do a time of worship and prayer before the Blessed Sacrament.
