Eucharistic Congress
9 September 1923
Genova, Italy
The Eucharistic Jesus is the true Emmanuel, the “God with us” (Mt 1:23).
“The faith of the Church,” Pope Pius XII teaches us, “is this: That one and identical is the Word of God and the Son of Mary Who suffered on the Cross, Who is present in the Eucharist, and Who rules in Heaven.
The Eucharistic Jesus is here with us as a brother, as a friend, as spouse of our souls. He wishes to enter within us to be our Food for eternal life, our love, our support. He wants to make us part of His mystical Body in which He would redeem us and save us, and then take us into the kingdom of Heaven to settle us in an everlasting bliss of love.
—Fr Stefano M. Manelli, FFI, Jesus Our Eucharistic Love
