With churches having empty pews during Mass, many Catholics not having an understanding of the Eucharist, and more and more young people disaffiliating from the Church, the United States Bishops have called for a three-year Eucharistic Revival. As one of the largest Catholic high school networks in the United States, we as Lasallians have a great opportunity to play a pivotal role in helping the young entrusted to our care rediscover and grow in their love of Our Lord in the Eucharist.
Based in the teachings of Saint John Baptist de La Salle, Brother Mark Engelmeyer, FSC, Religion Teacher at Central Catholic High School in Pittsburgh, PA, helps educators effectively incorporate the Eucharistic Revival into their schools through this webinar, hosted by Christian Brothers Conference. Br. Mark also makes his slides and other resources available.
