"encounter the reality of our eucharistic lord"
Our world is hurting. We all need healing, yet many of us are separated from the very source of our strength. Jesus Christ invites us to return to the source and summit of our faith in the celebration of the Eucharist. The National Eucharistic Revival is a movement to restore understanding and devotion to this great mystery here in the United States by helping us renew our worship of Jesus Christ in the Eucharist.
Watch this video to learn more about the exciting journey ahead and how we at Saint Francis of Assisi can be part of it!

The Year of Parish Revival begins on the Solemnity of Corpus Christi, June 11, 2023. As we enter this new season of grace, Bishop Cozzens has composed a beautiful prayer for the Revival and the Church in this next chapter.
One of the fruits anticipated from the National Eucharistic Revival movement is a greater unity within the Catholic Church. As a reflection of the many languages and cultures that make up the United States, this prayer has been translated into five languages. Join your brothers and sisters from all heritages and backgrounds in earnest intercession as we ask God to pour out an overflowing measure of grace and healing throughout the next year of this movement.
NATIONAL EUCHARISTIC REVIVAL PRAYER
Lord Jesus Christ, you give us your flesh and blood for the life of the world, and you desire that all people come to the Supper of the Sacrifice of the Lamb. Renew in your Church the truth, beauty, and goodness contained in the Most Blessed Eucharist.
Jesus living in the Eucharist, come and live in me.
Jesus healing in the Eucharist, come and heal me.
Jesus sacrificing yourself in the Eucharist, come and suffer in me.
Jesus rising in the Eucharist, come and rise to new life in me.
Jesus loving in the Eucharist, come and love in me.
Lord Jesus Christ, through the paschal mystery of your death and resurrection made present in every Holy Mass, pour out your healing love on your Church and on our world. Grant that as we lift you up during this time of Eucharistic Revival, your Holy Spirit may draw all people to join us at this Banquet of Life. You live and reign with the Father and the Holy Spirit, God forever and ever.
Our Lady of Guadalupe, Mother of the Eucharist, Pray for us.

"When is the last time you sat down to enjoy a meal with your family or close friends—not just to eat food in close proximity to each other, but to bask in each other's presence and grow in love for one another? For most of us, this doesn't happen at a typical meal. But this is the kind of meal God wants to share with us. This is the kind of meal he has prepared for us and invites us to participate in through the Sacrament of the Eucharist."Watch the entire Presence series here: https://watch.formed.org/presence

Recent studies have revealed the shocking statistic that less than one third of American Catholics believe that the Eucharist is the true Body and Blood of Jesus Christ. In response to this crisis, Bishop Barron began working with his brother
bishops on a solution. From these conversations, the National Eucharistic Revival was born.
Simply put, the National Eucharistic Revival is a movement by the US Conference of Catholic Bishops to restore understanding and devotion to the Real Presence of Jesus Christ in the Eucharist.
To support this revival, they made Bishop Barron's film series "The Mass" free to watch online!
