Desiring the Holy Eucharist: The Key in the Battle Against a Conspiracy of Interruptions

Dear Friend,

We all know that the raging pandemic and economic downturn led to the closing of our churches and the spiritual starving of the lay faithful for the Blessed Sacrament. Among its many ripple effects were the deprivation of the grace of other sacraments as well, such as Reconciliation, Anointing, and more…

Without being able to draw strength from the Lord, many have gotten caught up in distracting interruptions. 

In light of what I call the ongoing “conspiracy of interruptions” from the pandemic scare all around us, we must not lose sight of the most important things. For over a year and a half we’ve all been embroiled in terrible spiritual and societal battles. With these exacerbating concerns, millions have run the risk of losing their belief in the Real Presence of Jesus Christ in the Most Holy Eucharist.

You can serve as a source of hope and light as well as a reminder that families are not alone in their darkest moments. Help us spread hope by making a donation to our annual appeal today.

My friends, millions of souls are at stake! Particularly during this tumultuous time, we need to draw strength from the Lord and embrace the Eucharist as the ultimate source of our spiritual strength and grace. 

In his 2012 book, Divine Love Made Flesh: The Holy Eucharist as the Sacrament of Charity, His Eminence Raymond Cardinal Burke stressed the importance of desiring in our lives first and foremost, the Holy Eucharist. He notes that for the person of faith, all other goods in life are seen always in relationship to the Holy Eucharist.

All Hell quivers and quakes at the soul that cries out with agonizing yearnings for Christ in the Eucharist: “The great good in our life and the measure of the depth of our faith is naturally the strength of our desire to receive Holy Communion,” said Cardinal Burke. 

As we continue to direct our hearts and minds to Christ in these final days of Advent, let us remember there is no fuller communion with God than when we receive the Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity of Christ in Holy Communion. Let us reaffirm and strengthen our conviction that the Holy Eucharist is the very Source of our life in the Church and its highest expression. 

As we draw close to the coming of Christ at Christmas, let us increase the deepest desire of our hearts for the Eucharist!
