Jesus Wants to Encounter You Again and Again

Do you remember when you first encountered Jesus in the Eu-

charist? It may not be the first time you went to Mass or your

First Communion, although those were certainly important mo-

ments. Think back to the first time Jesus reached out and

touched your heart in a way that felt personal. The day you real-

ized that your Lord was really present in the host before you,and something in you changed.

Encounter with Jesus is not just the starting point of our active

spiritual lives but also a deep well of refreshment along the jour-

ney. When we adore and receive Jesus given for us on the altar,

we are empowered to give of ourselves for others. These regular,

profound encounters are the heartbeat of relationship with Jesus and this relationship strengthens us to be more authentic and

powerful witnesses to his love. That’s why the first pillar of the

Year of Mission is Eucharistic Encounter.

How will you deepen your relationship with Jesus this year?

pillar.
