The Little Catechism on the Eucharist is a Eucharistic compendium for young people. It is also useful for those who are seeking an initial introduction to the "Mysteries of the Faith," the wonderful phase used by the Church from earliest time to describe the Sacrament of the Eucharist.
Written as an ABC's of the faith for young people, this attractive and much-needed book contains three parts:
1) basic truths of the faith and Eucharistic doctrine (in question-and-answer format), including the Church's teaching authority, the promise of the Eucharist, transubstantiation, the parts of the Mass, and how to receive Communion reverently and worthily;
2) stories of Eucharistic miracles (Lanciano, the miracles of St. Anthony of Padua and St. Clare, miraculous healings in Lourdes, and 10 more);
3) stories of Eucharistic saints (St. Tarcisius, St. John Neumann, St. Padre Pio, the children of Fatima, St. Katharine Drexel, and 11 others).
Highly praised by many cardinals and bishops!
Preface by Cardinal J. Francis Stafford; foreword by Cardinal Francis George, OMI.
