May: Eucharistic Revival and other great things coming our way

"When someone experiences the radical transformation that Jesus brings, they can't help but do everything possible to share the message of the gospel one-on-one with others, and to transform institutions, structures, and everything else they encounter in order to help God get his world back."

~Fr. John Riccardo, Rescued

Evangelization News, Tips & Ideas

The Eucharistic Revival Begins June 19

The Bishops of the United States are calling for a three-year grassroots revival of devotion and belief in the Real Presence of Jesus in the Eucharist. They believe that God wants to see a movement of Catholics across the United States, healed, converted, formed, and unified by an encounter with Jesus in the Eucharist—and sent out in mission “for the life of the world." The three-year Eucharistic Revival begins on June 19, 2022, the Solemnity of Corpus Christi. Click the links below to find out more:
