The 10th National Eucharistic Congress themed, “My Flesh for the Life of the World” has ended. The “Year of Mission,” the last of the 3-year Eucharistic Revival, has begun. Say “yes” to a special form of heart-to-heart accompaniment called the “Walk With One” initiative. Our families, neighborhoods, and country will be transformed if every active Catholic answers this call!

The Mission Year’s, elements are: To form, inspire, and launch missionary disciples, filled with love of God and neighbor that comes from an encounter with Jesus in the Eucharist,
to the margins of the Church and the world. For help evangelizing, pray first! Ask the Holy Spirit to bring to mind someone with whom God wants a closer relationship. Then, Walk with that One.

We must remember that grace comes to us through the Sacraments! Forgiveness requires repentance. (Jesus’s first recorded word in the Gospels is “Repent!” Use a daily examination of conscience to help you to know how often to seek Reconciliation.) Also, without absolution of sin there is no communion. Our life with Jesus — His passion, death and resurrection — began with our Baptisms. Are we uniting our sufferings with His at the foot of the Cross? Are we being fed in Word, Sacrament and Service? Participation means being Christ-like and celebrating the Sacraments!
Adoration allows us to be present to Jesus when we are not at Mass. Use this reflection to help you.
A pilgrimage is also a way to gain an appreciation of Jesus love. A series of materials guiding you to make a local pilgrimage are available at our worship sites, or by contacting Patty Larzelere.
