Eucharistic Congress that began Wednesday July 17th ends this weekend on Sunday July 21st. The congress does end but now the mission begins! So far we are hearing of attendance numbers at some of the adoration and liturgical events in the neighborhood of 50,000! May each and every soul present there leave on fire with a mission to spread the fruits of this gathering: Eucharistic Evangelization to the ends of the earth. We also pray for the many more who attended virtually using the internet and streaming services for truly holy ends that they too will proclaim the beauty of the Faith and the joyous reality that Christ the Lord is indeed still with us, Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity in the Blessed Sacrament.
We have been blessed to prayerfully support this congress from our enclosure from afar. Yet truly we are no farther than a glance at the monstrance.
“[Our Lord] is so much in love with us that he would be our daily bread. So much in love with us that he would bless us from the monstrance day by day – from the tabernacle night by night. Oh, who shall measure the greatness of divine love!” – Father Gerald Fitzgerald, sP.
