Revival’s in the Air
AN EXCITING JOURNEY AHEAD
Our world is hurting. We all need healing, yet many of us are separated from the very source of our strength. Jesus desires to heal, renew, and unify the Church and the world by uniting us once again around the source and summit of our faith - the Holy Eucharist.
The Bishops of the United States have called for a National Eucharistic Revival - a three-year grassroots revival of devotion and belief in the Real Presence of Jesus in the Eucharist.
We believe that God wants to see a movement of Catholics across the United States, healed, converted, formed, and unified by an encounter with Jesus in the Eucharist—and sent out in mission “for the life of the world.” Visit www.EucharisticRevival.org for free educational and inspirational content to help you learn more about the reality of Jesus in the Eucharist and fall more deeply in love with him.
"Imagine our Church and our country teaming with people who are filled with the peace and joy that come from a relationship of knowing Jesus. That is the potential impact of the National Eucharistic Revival."

Bishop O'Connell's Catechetical Series on the Eucharist
My purpose is writing this catechetical series is simple: to re-present the Catholic Church’s understanding of the Holy Eucharist as the Lord Jesus Christ’s own Body and Blood, his ‘gift for the life of the world’ (John 6: 51),” wrote Bishop David M. O’Connell, C.M., in the preface to his new five-part Catechetical Series on the Eucharist.
Made available in text, video and as a podcast, the first installment of the series was released Oct. 18, the Feast of St. Luke. Each new installment will drop weekly through Nov. 15. All released content will be available at DioceseofTrenton.org/eucharist-series and the entire series will be published in The Monitor Magazine’s November issue.“It is my hope,” said Bishop O’Connell, “that this series will help catechize the faithful and dispel recently and widely advertised misunderstandings about the Eucharist,” proposing that the series may be useful in parish or school programs, especially during the National Eucharistic Revival, a three-year initiative to inspire people to encounter Jesus in the Eucharist.
