National Eucharistic Revival

The National Eucharistic Revival is a massive, three-year initiative that will bear fruit for years to come.

The mission of the National Eucharistic Revival is to renew the Church by enkindling a living relationship with Our Lord Jesus Christ in the Holy Eucharist. This revival movement is in answer to a call by the Holy Spirit, and all the fruits belong to him.

The Eucharistic Revival is not a step-by-step plan or a series of meetings. Rather, the revival is a grassroots call and a challenge for every Catholic across the United States to rekindle the fire of love and devotion for the Eucharistic Heart of Jesus.

Year of Diocesan Revival
June 2022 – June 2023

Year of Parish Revival
June 2023 – July 2024

Year of Going Out on Mission

If we but paused for a moment to consider attentively what takes place in this Sacrament, I am sure that the thought of Christ’s love for us would transform the coldness of our hearts into a fire of love and gratitude.

St Joe’s Eucharistic Revival small groups kicked off the week of October 16. Groups follow a seven week video series with discussions led by a session facilitator.

Many groups have taken on the study themselves at home, so if you would like to participate, gather some friends and access it online!

31 Prayers for the Eucharistic Revival

The October homily series on the Eucharist has concluded and as a parish we invite everyone to daily prayer for the Revival’s success.  At the end of Mass on the weekend of November 5/6, everyone was given a prayer booklet: 31 Prayers for the Eucharistic Revival. The book contains one prayer for each day of the month with each prayer taking less than one minute of time. If each person at Mass at St. Joseph’s over the weekend would pray one prayer per day, hours of prayer would occur every day for the Eucharistic Revival. After you have completed one month, start over at the beginning of the book. Everyone is requested to use this prayer book during the parish year of the Eucharistic Revival. If you were not at Mass on this weekend, more copies are available at the entrances.

National Eucharistic Revival Prayer

Lord Jesus Christ, you give us your flesh and blood for the life of the world, and you desire that all people come to the Supper of the Sacrifice of the Lamb. Renew in your Church the truth, beauty, and goodness contained in the Most Blessed Eucharist.
Jesus living in the Eucharist, come and live in me.

Jesus healing in the Eucharist, come and heal me.
Jesus sacrificing yourself in the Eucharist, come and suffer in me.
Jesus rising in the Eucharist, come and rise to new life in me.
Jesus loving in the Eucharist, come and love in me.

Lord Jesus Christ, through the paschal mystery of your death and resurrection made present in every Holy Mass, pour out your healing love on your Church and on our world. Grant that as we lift you up during this time of Eucharistic Revival, your Holy Spirit may draw all people to join us at this Banquet of Life. You live and reign with the Father and the Holy Spirit, God forever and ever.

Our Lady of Guadalupe, Mother of the Eucharist, Pray for us.
