Corpus Christi//Eucharistic Amazement

corpus christi eucharist

Corpus Christi is the Feast of the Body of Christ that proclaims the Eucharistic Amazement we have as Catholics.

Pope St. John Paul II coined the term, “Eucharistic Amazement,” in his encyclical Ecclesia de Eucharistia.

The late pontiff asserts that Eucharist action incites amazement.

“When they celebrate the Eucharist, “the faithful can relive in some way the experience of the two disciples of Emmaus: ‘and their eyes opened and they recognized him’ (Lk 24:31)”.

Here are photos from our own Eucharistic Amazement that took place on our Corpus Christi Celebrations.
