10th National Eucharistic Congress
2024-08-09 22:00 (America/Chicago)
“The hand of the Lord feeds us. He answers all our needs.”
We who attended the National Eucharistic Revival were blessed to witness the most important event of our generation for the Church in the United States. About 60,000 Catholics from all over the USA gathered in Indianapolis around our Eucharistic Lord. We heard incredible speakers and we were united in prayer with priests, religious, bishops, and cardinals that together numbered in the thousands. It was truly an experience of our universal Church on a scale only surpassed by World Youth Day.
But as good as all those things were, the most important reason we journeyed across the country was to come together as a nation around our Eucharistic Lord. We witnessed the extraordinary power of Jesus in the Eucharist, right there in our midst! He fed us, consecrated us, and renewed us. For five days, Lucas Oil Stadium was the world’s largest wicker basket, filled to bursting with the Bread of Life.
This Eucharistic Congress was a deep and profound experience of renewal of our American Church. We witnessed hope for our Church with our own eyes. We were led in prayer to repent before Jesus in the Eucharist. We asked Jesus together for renewal on behalf of our nation.
We are blessed that the Lord Jesus chose us and called us to be witnesses to this defining event. But we have not been made privileged witnesses for our own mere personal benefit. We did not earn this. We did not receive this because we were special. Jesus individually chose us to come, because he also individually chose us to carry out these graces into the world. Like the wheat of the field that becomes the Bread of Life, we have been gathered, formed in fire, broken, blessed, and now given to the Church as missionaries.
The Catholic Church in America will be forever marked by this event. When future generations study the history of our Church, they will read and learn about this 10th National Eucharistic Congress. They will learn how the Church in our country discerned a call from the Holy Spirit for revival “through, with, and in” Jesus in the Eucharist. And it’s abundantly clear that this is only the beginning of a grand movement that will span our lifetimes. The 11th National Eucharistic Congress has been announced for 2033, the Year of Redemption. Another national Eucharistic procession has been announced for 2025, culminating in a gathering on Corpus Christi Sunday in Los Angeles. We thought we were seeing the end of a three year process, when in reality we were seeing the beginning of a lifelong revival of our Church.
We are extraordinarily blessed in the American Church with material, intellectual, and spiritual abundance. Other countries struggle with lack of wealth, lack of faith education, lack of organization, lack of priests, or lack of religious freedom. We do not face crises like these in the USA – or at least, not on the same order of magnitude. “To whom much is given, much will be required.” There is little doubt we have been given this abundance in order to combat the great evils of our time and the godlessness that oppresses so many in our country.
Now, Jesus has called upon our Church’s abundance. He has come into our midst and fed ten times the multitude he fed in the Gospels. Ten times the more, then, is our mandate to overflow.
The power of the Lord Jesus! To take simple bread and make it our salvation. To take human hands and make them his own. To take a sports stadium and make it holy ground. To take our ordinary lives and make us extraordinary missionaries of the Eucharist.
Dear family, now is the time of renewal for our Church. “The winter is past, the rains are over and gone. The flowers appear on the earth.” We are entering a springtime – and springtime is the season of planting seeds. Jesus calls us from the Eucharist, like a beacon of fire, to join him in a lifelong Eucharistic procession. The world is starving for God and we have the only nourishment here among us. He says in our midst: “Behold, I make all things new.” Will we carry the seeds of Eucharistic renewal out into our country?

Awaken National Conference
2022-12-28 - 2023-01-02
0000Days00Hours00Minutes00SecondsThere is no doubt that it has been a long two years for the world. There have been struggles to live our faith with joy, not to mention fulfilling our calling to missionary discipleship! Like Samuel in the Old Testament, we may have been unaware that the Lord has awakened us and called us in the midst of the many challenges of the last few years.
LET US NOT WAIT ANY LONGER. LET US COME TOGETHER!
Now is the time, to arouse from our slumber, shed the lethargy and heaviness of the world, and respond to the voice of the Lord that awakens us! Let us come together as a Jesus Youth family with anticipation and joy as we say with Samuel, “Speak Lord, your servant is listening!”

One of the best parts of Awaken will be coming together as a family, both biological and spiritual! Now is the time to reunite with your brothers and sisters in Christ from all over the country, build new friendships and dive deeper into themes relevant for every stage of life. Throughout the days of awaken, multiple streams of programming will be offered to respond to the needs of the whole family. There is truly something for everyone and it will be the perfect way to come together in joy and unity!
RENEW
These last two years have been challenging in many ways for many people. As we begin a new year, let us renew our strength in the Lord. Through the days of Awaken, you will be encouraged and inspired to fix your eyes on the eternal, to awaken and renew your soul for the missionary journey that lies ahead!
He said this, and then told them, “Our friend Lazarus is asleep, but I am going to awaken him.”
JOHN 11:11

GIFT
Has the Jesus Youth Movement been a gift in your life? How have you received that gift and how will you pay it forward? Awaken will be a time to deeply answer that question in our hearts, prayers and conversation. Surrounded by new and old friends we celebrate the giftedness of Jesus Youth and reflect how we can embrace and share this gift of joy with the world!
HOPE
As Christians, we are called to be people of hope. Yet so often, our hope is hampered by the situation within and around us. Awaken is your opportunity to restore hope in your spiritual life, family, and ministry. We will encounter the Lord through our inspiring peers, speakers, and most importantly, through the Eucharist. Come and prepare your hearts to receive the abiding hope that comes only from the Lord, through anointed times of prayer and renewal in your identity as a Jesus Youth.

We will be co-sponsoring this webinar with the Diocese of Palm Beach and the St. Thomas Syro Malabar Diocese of Chicago. As you may know, Simi Sahu will become a consecrated virgin for the Diocese of Palm Beach on February 11th. Due to the nature of the vocation, she will remain a Jesus Youth and has been granted special permission from the bishop to remain a Syro-Malabar Catholic! As such, from the movement, we thought that it would be an opportune time to bring greater awareness & understanding about this relatively rare vocation in the Church. We have an amazing lineup with Fr. Daniel Daza- Jeller, Fr. John Horn, Dawn Hausmann, and Simi herself. All will be sharing on various aspects of vocations for the kingdom, celibacy and the vocation of consecrated virginity!
