This past week, Fr. Greg and I will be in Indianapolis for the Eucharistic Congress as a part of the National Eucharistic Revival. We are very excited to take part in this historic event for our country. As you are reading this, things will be wrapping up in Indianapolis and we will be on our way back to the great state of Kansas. Please pray for us and the crew attending as we come back with Hearts on Fire to share what we experienced and to be on mission in a deeper way out of love for the Eucharist,
The following prayer was the prayer written for the Eucharisic Revival in the Congress. This would be a great prayer to learn by heart and to pray after receiving the Eucharist.
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.
In Christ,
Fr. Andrew
