Eucharist: Heart of the Church

Monday nights, 6 to 7:30 p.m., in-person or on Zoom

April 12, 19, 26 and May 3 and 10

In this year of the Eucharist, Holy Name of Jesus is proud to present Archdiocesan Spirituality Center Director, Sr. Dorothy Trosclair, OP, as she presents a five-session series that will explore ways of bridging the gap between Eucharist and everyday life so that the reality and dynamism of the Eucharist will begin to affect the way we live.  

We are called to live out in our daily lives what we celebrate at the Eucharistic table. A move from passive to active participation in the Eucharistic celebration can deepen one’s relationship with God, self and the community.

Join us either in the Holy Name Parish Center for the five sessions.
