Year of the Eucharist (link to more Subject categories)
“The Eucharist is the center of the Church's life. In it Christ offers himself to the Father for our sake, making us sharers in his own sacrifice, and gives himself to us as the bread of life for our journey on the highways of the world.” — Pope John Paul II, Homily, 6/13/2004
Pope John Paul II announced a special Year of the Eucharist during the Mass of the solemnity of Corpus Christi on Sunday, June 13, 2004. This special year begins in October 2004 in Guadalajara, Mexico, with a World Eucharistic Congress, and it will end in October 2005 in the Vatican at the next Ordinary Synod of Bishops meeting on “The Eucharist as Source and Summit of the Life and Mission of the Church.”
