Our experience of God's grace in the Eucharist isn't meant for us alone. Like the fire we light at the Easter Vigil, we must light the candles of our own lives from the Light of Christ and pass that flame to others. This can happen when we embrace a spirituality, a worldview, and a way of living our Faith that is centered on Christ in the Eucharist.
For the Life of the World is an invitation to Eucharistic mission. As part of the National Eucharistic Revival in the U.S. Catholic Church, this book outlines the four pillars of the life of a Eucharistic missionary: 1) Eucharistic encounter, leading to 2) Eucharistic identity, poured out in 3) a Eucharistic life, all on the way to 4) Eucharistic mission.
If the National Eucharistic Revival and, ultimately, the mission of the Church are to be fruitful, it will be because people who love the Eucharist want to share it with others. The mission of Christ depends on inviting every Catholic to a deeper encounter with the Eucharist.
