The United States Conference of Catholic Bishops has initiated a three-year Eucharistic Revival as a way of helping Catholics to rediscover the greatest Sacrament of all the sacraments: the Holy Eucharist. This book is intended to be an aid to this revival, offering timeless quotes on the Eucharist – 366 quotes, in fact – from popes, saints, blessed, venerables, and servants of God. Eucharistic Gems is a book that can be read and re-read for years to come, and keep the Eucharistic Revival ever in our hearts.
Eucharistic Gems is the fourth in a series of books of the same nature. The three previous books are: Marian Gems, Rosary Gems, and St. Joseph Gems.
The Holy Eucharist is our greatest treasure and the source of our hope and strength in the spiritual life. The times we live in are filled with fear, anxiety, and worry. As an antidote, take the time to meditate on these daily quotes, pondering the message given throughout your day. Jesus loves you, and He is always waiting for a visit from you in the Blessed Sacrament. Every Catholic Church has a tabernacle; visit Him!
