“The good news is that Jesus is here with us today-body, blood, soul and divinity-in the Holy Eucharist. Although Jesus comes to us under the appearance of bread and wine, His presence is as real to us now as when He walked this earth. He can perform miracles, heal us, teach us and love us. We can talk to Him and He can speak to us.” Saint Teresa of Calcutta

"When we love someone we want to spend as much time with them as possible. This is the motivation for Eucharistic Adoration. The testimonies of Adorers found in the pages of this book will move you to spend time with our Eucharistic Lord. It is my prayer that your faith will be strengthened and your love deepened, not only by the stories of those recounted here, but by everyone who is moved to commit themselves to an hour a week with the One who loves us beyond our imagining." -Timothy Cardinal Dolan, Archbishop of New York

"We should rejoice in the fact that God’s love reaches people in a variety of ways. Spending time with the Lord in prayer before the Eucharist is a grace-filled opportunity to be silent before the Lord and allow Him to speak to us in the depths of our spirit. In our often hectic daily life, moments of quiet prayer in which we listen to the voice of God are openings of the heart which permit God’s love to permeate our entire day. This book relates in a beautiful way the stories of those who have experienced God coming more deeply into their lives through their prayer before the Eucharist." -Most Reverend Thomas J. Rodi, Archbishop of Mobile

“This book is very timely. We are in the midst of the Eucharistic Revival when only 30% of Catholics believe in the True Presence of the Eucharist. This easy-to-read book is a fantastic preparatory tool to use during Eucharistic Adoration so that you can get to Know Him, Love Him and Serve Him more and more, and, thereby, grow in holiness. Your mission and mine is eternity with our Lord. Eucharistic Adoration is a taste of eternity on earth.Try to bring others with you. What else matters, right?”-Sr. Deirdre (Sr. Dede) M. Byrne, POSC
