Eucharist's character as Sacrifice, Communion, and Presence.
After teaching what the Eucharist is, Fr. Hardon explores what the Eucharist does.
He beautifully explains how our devotion to the Holy Eucharist transforms all aspects
of our relationship with our Lord."
"Whether we are members of a domestic family of parents and children, or members
of the clergy, or members of consecrated life, the future of all family life depends on
a deep and clear faith in the Real Presence. This book will help us better understand
what we believe about the Holy Eucharist and why Christ gave us the Real
Presence."
An excellent book with 26 chapters that may be used as lesson plans to teach your
parishioners about the Eucharist.

Have you ever wondered about the story behind some of the people who
make an hour of adoration in your church or chapel week after week? Aside
from the one or two line petitions we all get to read, no one has
undertaken the task to give an in-depth look into their lives until now.
David Pearson has taken nine people, interviewed them and given us a book
that not only captures our attention but unexpectedly surprises us by
what these adorers have to say. Best of all, is the invaluable insight we
get about the God Who made us that is brought to light as a result of his
inquiries.
The book is available in retail and online bookstores or by calling (800)
458-8505. Pearson is features editor of the National Catholic Register. |

the joyful, sorrowful and glorious events in Jesus' life. Father Ed places
himself right there, witnesses the event, and then speaks to Jesus about
his reactions to it. His reflections will encourage you to examine your
own relationship with the Lord and allow you to experience His love,
forgiveness and mercy in a new and deeper way." |
