Church Leaders : Synod and Eucharistic Revival Require Work that Lies Ahead

In separate addresses to the American bishops, Cardinal Christophe Pierre and Archbishop Timothy Broglio spoke on two major Church events of   the past year --the Synod of Bishops on Synodality and the National Eucharistic Revival  -- and the need to keep each alive,the Crux website reports today (Nov. 13, 2024). 


Pierre, the apostolic nuncio to the United States, connected the synod and Eucharistic revival, as well as the upcoming jubilee of 2025, to Pope Francis's recent encyclical, Dilexit nos (heloredus) on the Sacred of Jesus, in which the Holy Father underlines the social dimension  of Christ's love and caring for other sas an extension of a personal , intimate relationship with God. 


"Eucharistic revival, a more synodal form of evsangelization,a jubilee year of hope --all of these experiences will produce fruit provided that we return to the heart of Christ, that sacred place where human longing and divine love are united," Pierre told the American bishops.
