Eucharistic Revival
Nourished by the Eucharist, send us forth to walk faithfully as missionary disciples.
“I am the living bread that came down from heaven; whoever eats this bread will live forever; and the bread that I will give is my flesh for the life of the world.”
-John 6:51
Three years ago, the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops launched the National Eucharistic Revival, the high point of which was the National Eucharistic Congress in Indianapolis last summer. As the culmination of this three-year initiative, the National Eucharistic Pilgrimage will start in Indianapolis on May 18, 2025 and end in Los Angeles. Eight perpetual pilgrims will travel with the Blessed Sacrament across the country, logging 3,340 miles and passing through 20 dioceses. The Archdiocese of Los Angeles is eager to welcome the pilgrims to the West Coast, along with visitors from neighboring dioceses!
On Friday, June 20, 2025, the pilgrimage will travel up the coast to Mission Basilica San Buenaventura and then to Sacred Heart Church in Altadena. The next day, Saturday, June 21, it will stop at St. Vincent de Paul Church and end at Mission San Gabriel. Finally, on Sunday, June 22, the Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ, the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels will host the Corpus Christi Celebration, with Mass and a Eucharistic procession through downtown Los Angeles.

The Importance of Eucharistic Adoration
Eucharistic Devotion
Holy hours are the Roman Catholic devotional tradition of spending an hour in Eucharistic Adoration in the presence of the Blessed Sacrament. The U.S. bishops have created a variety of holy hours that focus our prayer to Jesus Christ on peace, life, vocations, and other topics that are at the heart of the life of the Church and the world.
Jesus is #TrulyPresent in the Eucharist. That is one of the tenants of our faith. But sadly, many people in the world, both Catholics and non-Catholics, don’t believe that this Sacrament is the body and blood of Christ. How can we ensure that we bring the truth to those who are yearning for it? By learning why we believe in His real presence and sharing it with others.
Use the resources below to learn what the Catholic Church, through the Gospel, the Catechism, the saints, and the Pope and Bishops, teaches regarding this reality.

ÉL está #RealmentePresente en la Eucaristía. Esa una de las principales enseñanzas de nuestra fe. Pero lamentablemente, muchas personas en el mundo, tanto católicas como no católicas, no creen que este Sacramento sea el cuerpo y la sangre de Cristo. ¿Cómo podemos asegurarnos de llevar la verdad a aquellos que la anhelan? Aprendiendo por qué creemos en Su presencia real y compartirla con los demás.
Aprende lo que la Iglesia Católica, a través del Evangelio, el Catecismo, los santos, el Papa y los obispos, enseñan con respecto a esta realidad.
