“Today solemn exposition of the Blessed Sacrament
is the grace and need of our time. Society will be restored
and renewed when all its members group themselves
around our Emmanuel.”
“Look upon the Hour of Adoration assigned to
you
as an hour in
paradise. Go to your
adoration
as one would to heaven, to the divine
banquet.
You will then long for that
hour and hail it with
joy.
Take delight in fostering a longing for it in
your heart.
Tell yourself, “In four hours, in two
hours, in one hour, our Lord
will give me an audience of grace and
love. He has invited me;
He is
waiting for me; He is longing for
me.”

Eymard
St Peter Julian
Eymard was unequalled as an Apostle of the Eucharist. His VOCATION and MISSION
On his deathbed St Peter Julian Eymard gave this
reply
to a religious who requested a final point for
reflection:
"I have nothing more to tell
you.
You already have the Eucharist.
What more do you want?"
What more do you want?"
St Peter Julian Eymard, pray
for us
that we may become a family of friends,
that we may become a family of friends,
a nation of
adorers!
