201 Inspirational Stories of the Eucharist

I have used this book as a daily devotional since the beginning of the year. I start each day with the daily Bible Lectionary, Our Catechism, and then my excitement is really peaked as I anticipate reading another heart warming true testimony or two from 201 Inspirational Stories of The Eucharist. If one can't get excited and more enthusiastic about The Real Presence of Jesus Christ in the Sacrament of Holy Communion after reading each story then something has got to be wrong in your life. God is truly present through His Son Jesus Christ and The Means of Grace given to each person sharing in His Sacrifice is the most joyful participation that any Christian could hope for.

This is an inspiring and uplifting book on individual experiences with the Eucharist. Through reading it I was drawn to a deeper appreciation of the Mass and Eucharistic adoration. However, it should not be taken as a treatise on Eucharistic theology. Although there are writings from priests, quotes from saints and testimonies from religious it's whole purpose is to share experiences that modern day people have had with the Eucharist. I was especially appreciative of the fact that the stories given are by ordinary people going through the struggles of everyday life; when suddenly they encounter Jesus' true presence in the Eucharist.I recommend this book to any Catholic wanting to grow in their awareness of Jesus'Eucharistic presence.

These stories are inspire you to think, appreciate your faith and I highly recommend this book and encourage you to read 1 or 2 each morning for a great start to your day.

Very easy to read book, filled with stories of the impact of Our Lord's presence in the Holy Eucharist - in Holy Communion, in Eucharistic Adoration, etc. Stories told by not only priests and religious, but many lay people of faith as well. One of those reference books you can pick up, read 3-4 stories and then be inspired the rest of the day. Very worthwhile for those who wish to come back to the Church, for those who live to receive the Lord, for those questioning their faith. All will find something to inspire them. Well done by Sister Patricia Proctor, a Poor Clare nun.

I'm only about 1/3 of the way through the book but it's so easy to read. There is a compilation of many short stories and some will make you tear up. It's a beautiful reminder of what the Eucharist is all about. I recommend this to everyone especially if you're looking for a little spiritual boot. Love it and plan on getting more of Sister's books.

I perused this book and had expected miraculous stories to inspire me and this is not what the book was supposed to note in the reading. I wanted to be inspired by people who were praying near the Holy Eucharist and seeking God. This book was not written in this manner.

Very touching. Gave as gift.

I wanted a practical book on the Eucharist.I got 201 stories from all over the world ...delightful! Recommended for everyone.

My own conversion testimony from evangelical pentecostal to the One, Holy, Catholic & Apostolic Church.John ch 6, Pope John Paul II forgiving the man who tried to kill him and 2 special places (Aylesford Friary & Medjugorje) were key factors in my pilgrimage to Rome.(John from Grays, Essex UK)

Exactly what I wanted. Ideal for use in our prayer group to help our own lives.
