Bishop Walker Nickless announced that the Diocese of Sioux City will launch the National Eucharistic Revival at a diocesan level on June 19 at the Cathedral of the Epiphany. All parishes within the diocese are invited to send a delegation to the Cathedral for the 10 a.m. Mass on Corpus Christi Sunday. The Mass will be followed by a multi-lingual (English, Spanish and Latin) eucharistic procession to formally open the diocesan year of the National Eucharistic Revival.
The diocese will forward materials and information on events that may be held locally or regionally over the next year. These events will focus on catechesis regarding the true presence of Jesus in the Eucharist and the holy sacrifice of the Mass and the Communion it produces. During the revival, which ends summer of 2024, the church, diocese and parishes are asked and encouraged to promote eucharistic adoration while instructing the faithful on how to spend time in silent prayer with Jesus in the Eucharist and how to participate in a holy hour. The revival continues with a new phase on Corpus Christi June 11, 2023 with a focus on the Eucharist and adoration at parish levels across the diocese and around the country. The National Eucharistic Congress will convene in Indianapolis, Ind., July 17 - 21, 2024. |
