Jesus is #TrulyPresent in the Eucharist
#RealmentePresente
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.
