Listen "National Eucharistic Congress"
Episode Synopsis
Father Steven and Dad both attended the 2024 National Eucharistic Congress the past weekend and shared their experiences.The 2024 National Eucharistic Congress was the first held since 1976. This gathering was the culmination of several years of work in coordination with the National Eucharistic Revival. Eucharistic procession pilgrimages from the North, South, East and West all converged on Indianapolis for the start of the Congress.Dad had not originally planned on attending but on the Sunday prior to the Congress Father Steven suggested that he drive down for the Saturday session.Father Steven attended Wednesday through Saturday. He found a daily rhythm of mass, different tracks of sessions, an exhibition hall and evening keynote speakers. One of the session tracks was for priests.Dad jumped in "mid-stream" with the Congress for 1 day on Saturday. There were many things to see and Dad planned his day to see as much as possible.A highlight of Saturday for both Father Steven and Dad was the Eucharistic Procession through downtown Indianapolis.Ultimately, what matters most is what fruit this Congress bears.
