CONTINUING A LEGACY OF ROBUST CATECHESIS

Eucharistic Congresses often have themes—a particular aspect of the Eucharistic mystery chosen to be studied, discussed, and taught in great depth. For example, the first Eucharistic Congress had the theme, “The Eucharist Saves the World.” Other past themes include “Hungers of the Human Family” and “Eucharist, the Bond of Love.”

Experts would study the theme in preparation for the event, sometimes leading to the publication of a base text for the event. Then, speakers would share the fruit of this study with everyone in attendance so that all might gain a deeper understanding of the Paschal Mystery.

At the 10th National Eucharistic Congress, you will enjoy the fruit of this same extensive prayer and study—each day with a different theme!

Because we know not everyone will be able to come for the full experience, the programming for each day of the Congress is designed to stand on its own. Together, these five powerful days tell a story of unconditional love that will fill you with hope and inspire you to make Jesus in the Eucharist known and loved.
