Eucharistic Revival

Just as our natural life has its proper food for the growth and sustenance of the body, so the life of grace has its divine food: Jesus, the living bread which nourishes and perfects it until it is one day transfigured in eternal life…Just as the individual Christian lives and grows supernaturally by eating the Eucharistic bread, so also, “the Church constantly lives and grows from this bread” [Lumen Gentium, 26] The Eucharist is the nourishment and viaticum of the individual, and by this very fact that of the People of God; just as it strengthens and nourishes union with Christ, so does it strengthen and nourish union between Christians …Union with Our Lord and union among the faithful is the characteristic grace of the Eucharist, which we should prepare ourselves to receive fully; hence we should behave in such a way that it will be operative in our lives, translating into practice our communion with Christ and with our brothers.
