A Eucharistic Cinema Retreat
Based on the film Of Gods and Men
Saturday, August 27, 2022
In this cinema retreat we will be inspired by the catechetical year theme:“This is my body given for you" and we will be reflecting more deeply on the reality of the Paschal Mystery in our lives. Using the film, Of Gods and Men as our starting point, we will delve into the effects of living a Eucharistic centered life and how Christ becomes incarnate in us, giving us the grace to live our suffering with a view to Easter glory. This retreat is for anyone seeking to find meaning in the sufferings of life and the power of the Eucharist in our lives.
The Bishops of the United States are calling for a three-year grassroots revival of devotion and belief in the Real Presence of Jesus in the Eucharist. They believe that God wants to see a movement of Catholics across the United States, healed, converted, formed, and unified by an encounter with Jesus in the Eucharist—and sent out in mission “for the life of the world.”
