The Eucharist is central to our lives, uniting us with Jesus Christ in His suffering, death, and resurrection. Through our daily celebration of the Holy Eucharist, the Lord's sacrifice, we experience intimate contact with Him, renewing and strengthening our consecrated life.
We learn from the life of our Foundress, Blessed Elisabetta Renzi, that one of the pillars of her spirituality was the Eucharist, which is the sustenance on the journey towards union with God. Mother Elisabetta spent long hours in silent adoration before the Blessed Sacrament. There, she understood how daily contact with the Eucharist brings a soul to radical transformation.
Jesus in the Eucharist stands at the very
center of our community life. The Holy Eucharist,
source and summit of our daily living, is the
sacrament of love, the sign of unity,and the
bond of charity, continuallyrenewing us through
intimate contact with the Eucharistic
Jesus and the Word of truth. Bl. Elisabetta
herself captures the fruit of this encounter:
"When a soul has worthily received the sacrament
of the Eucharist, it swims in love; it is humble, kind,
mortified, charitable, and modest, in harmony with
all; it is capable of the greatest sacrifices."
