Revival is in the air
Our world is hurting; yet, amid our fallen world, Christ is present. Jesus radically tells us in John 6:41 that “the bread that I give is my flesh for the life of the world.” The Revival is a grassroots effort to bring this radical, life-giving promise to the world, inspiring a “movement of Catholics across the United States who are healed, converted, formed, and unified by an encounter with Jesus Christ in the Eucharist.”

The Diocesan Year

We are currently in the “Diocesan Year” (June 2022 - June 2023) of equipping and empowering leaders in the church. During this time, we invite you to join us at Diocesan Year events and to explore education and formation resources, all while deepening your personal devotion to the Eucharist.

The Parish Year
-
On Corpus Christi Sunday in June of 2023, we will enter into the “Parish Year,” (June 2023 - June 2024) fostering “Eucharistic devotion at the parish level, strengthening our liturgical life through faithful celebration of the Mass, Eucharistic Adoration, missions, resources, preaching, and organic movements of the Holy Spirit.” This will lead into in the first National Eucharistic Congress in the United States in almost fifty years from July 17-21, 2024 in Indianapolis, which will be followed by a year of going out on mission “for the life of the world.”

YouTube Playlist

We're curating a National Eucharistic Revival YouTube playlist of helpful videos about the Eucharist that you can refer to whenever you need. The idea is not to simply explain and break down the reality of the Eucharist until it "makes sense", but rather, that understanding would make way for greater trust in and relationship with God.
