After Wednesday evening’s opening ceremonies for the National Eucharistic Congress, Thursday marked the first full day of events for the 50,000 attendees.
The day began with pilgrims making their way to Indianapolis’s Lucas Oil Stadium for the opening Mass celebrated by Cardinal Dolan.
The arena, which is normally full of cheering football and basketball fans, was now packed with Catholics from all over the country celebrating the source and summit of our faith, the Most Holy Eucharist.
In his homily, Cardinal Dolan said recovering the centrality of Sunday Mass has to be the resolve of this Congress, saying, “as Pope Francis has repeated, no Eucharist, no Church.”
The digital newsroom received multiple awards in categories including ‘Best News Writing,’ ‘Best Photo,’ ‘Best Reporting on Cultural Heritage,’ and ‘Best Multimedia Package Series.’

The power that Jesus has over nature is significant, but more important is the promise that if we have faith in Jesus, He can calm any storm.
