The Eucharist is the heart of the Church. Where Eucharistic life flourishes, there the life of the church will blossom.
POPE SAINT JOHN PAUL II
The Year of Parish Revival
The second phase will foster eucharistic devotion at the parish level, strengthening our liturgical life through eucharistic adoration, missions, resources, preaching, and organic movements of the Holy Spirit. These local efforts will help convert hearts and minds to fall more deeply in love with Jesus Christ, truly present in the Holy Eucharist.
As we enter The Year of Parish Revival, we encourage you to attend different Masses and events at our other parishes, St. Paul's Chapel in Fremont and St. Joseph's in LaGrange.

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.
