Eucharistic Revival
OCP is proud to participate in the National Eucharistic Revival, led by the USCCB. On this page, you will find ideas and resources to assist your parish in participating in the Eucharistic Revival through Adoration (the Rite of Eucharistic Exposition and Benediction), contemplation of the liturgy, playlists focused on the Eucharist, and more. As John Paul II wrote in Dominicae Cenae, “The Church and the world have a great need for eucharistic worship. Jesus awaits us in this sacrament of love. Let us not refuse the time to go to meet him in adoration, in contemplation full of faith, and open to making amends for the serious offenses and crimes of the world. Let our adoration never cease.”
To support your parish in developing moments of communal prayer before the Holy Eucharist, explore the blogs, song suggestions and recommended resources below.
