Belief in the real presence of Christ in the sacrament of the Eucharist has always been the heart of our Catholic faith. Participating at Mass and receiving the Lord’s Body and Blood in holy Communion is the most important thing we do each week as Catholic Christians. Christ’s presence is so great and wondrous that we encounter it in multiple ways. Based on the teachings of the Second Vatican Council, this booklet explores the many presences of Christ as experienced in the liturgy: in the gathered assembly, the minister, the proclaimed Word and, most especially, the Eucharist. This resource also reflects upon Christ’s presence in the Body of Christ, the Church, called forth from the liturgy as a sign of his presence in the world.

“We all need to be reminded of Christ’s constant presence in our lives. Encountering the Real Presence of Christ will help any Catholic to do just that. With thoughtful discussions, input from the saints, and beautiful prose, this booklet can make a big difference in the hearts of the faithful as they prepare to receive the Lord’s Body and Blood each week.”
— Claire Swinarski Author of Girl, Arise and In Full Bloom (Ave Maria Press) Lisbon, Wisconsin

“Jeanne Miles’ Encountering the Real Presence of Christ is a heartfelt reminder of the ways we can encounter Jesus in the Eucharist if our hearts and minds are open, and if we use all of our senses to see, hear, touch, and taste the signs and mysteries of the Mass. The author gently nudges us to recognize Jesus in a crying baby, a tired teenager, or overwhelmed young mom as well as in the celebrant, and to hear Jesus in the Word and through those sharing God’s Word with us. She encourages us to open the eyes of our hearts to the presence of Jesus in the bread and the wine and challenges us to go out and share what we have witnessed with others once the Mass has ended. I would give this beautiful piece to all of the families with whom I minister!”
— Catzel LaVecchia Director of Lifelong Learning Church of the Presentation Upper Saddle River, New Jersey Board Member, National Community of Catechetical Leaders

“Encountering the Real Presence of Christ is a wonderful reminder of why we celebrate Mass.”
— Brent Patterson Extraordinary Minister of Holy Communion and Reader Our Lady of Fatima Catholic Church Birmingham, Alabama
