The Eucharist – Part OneVinny Flynn, well-known author and Divine Mercy expert discusses his book 7 Secrets of the Eucharist with Fr. Chris.This episode will help you gain a new understanding of the power of Holy Communion. 

Father Richard Conlin is a Catholic priest in the diocese of Vancouver, British Columbia. As the Catholic Church kicked off a campaign to educate the faithful on the Real Presence of Jesus in the Eucharist, I asked him to share his thoughts.

In today’s Gospel, we hear how Jesus summoned the Twelve and gave them “power and authority over all demons and to cure diseases” (Luke 9:1). Fr. Gabe reminds us that this same mission continues through the bishops, successors of the Apostles, who carry the fullness of the priesthood and share Christ’s authority in the world today. Through them, priests are ordained, the Sacraments are given, and the Church continues Christ’s saving work. Without bishops, there would be no priests, and without priests, there would be no Eucharist.
