Love this ! I also love the Beirut video - you can sense the Easter Joy in their singing.

I watched this one & was flooded by tears of joy–a feeling so deep inside I cannot begin to describe!:highprayer:
 
I found the video both inspiring and saddening.

To see most of humanity being totally unaware that they are in the presence of the very Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity of the Lord of the universe is very disturbing to me.

I suppose I ought to do something about that …

For those who do not recognize You in the Blessed Sacrament:

PATER NOSTER, qui es in caelis, sanctificetur nomen tuum.
Adveniat regnum tuum.
Fiat voluntas tua, sicut in caelo et in terra.
Panem nostrum quotidianum da nobis hodie,
et dimitte nobis debita nostra sicut et nos dimittimus debitoribus nostris.
Et ne nos inducas in tentationem,
sed libera nos a malo.
Amen.

AVE MARIA, gratia plena, Dominus tecum.
Benedicta tu in mulieribus,
et benedictus fructus ventris tui, Iesus.
Sancta Maria, Mater Dei, ora pro nobis peccatoribus, nunc, et in hora mortis nostrae.
Amen.

GLORIA PATRI, et Filio, et Spiritui Sancto.
Sicut erat in principio, et nunc, et semper, et in saecula saeculorum.
Amen.

It is very sad that so little recognized Jesus in the Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity of the Lord.

But what is even more sad is (“how few will recognize Him”) at the second coming of the Son of God.

LUKE 18: 6-8

6 And the Lord said: Hear what the unjust judge saith:
7 And will not God avenge his elect, who cry to him day and night: and will he have patience in their regard?
8 I say to you, he will quickly avenge them. (“But yet, when the Son of man cometh, shall he find, think you, faith on earth?”)

Ver. 8. In the Greek, although he suffer for the present the elect to be oppressed. (Bible de Vence) — Our divine Redeemer adds, this, to shew that faith must necessarily accompany our prayers. For whosoever prays for what he does not believe he shall obtain, will pray in vain; let us, therefore, entreat the Father of mercies to grant us the grace of prayer, and firmness in faith; for faith produces prayer, and prayer produces firmness of faith. (St. Augustine, de verb. Dom. Serm 36.) — But of this there is little left on the earth, and there will be still less at the second coming of the Son of God.

As a life long, practicing Christian of the Protestant persuasion, I was clueless about the Catholic Church’s teachings concerning the True Presence. I can’t explain why, but I had never heard it before. I saw Holy Communion as symbolic. When I first began to consider Catholicism, I had to look up the word “Eucharist” after hearing it a few times on EWTN. I re-read scripture in light of Catholic teaching and it made sense and suddenly seemed so obvious. How did I not see it before? I suppose that is what happens when a person is in a church that is many generations removed from the Catholic Church. I really was ignorant of the true history of Christianity. Thank God, that has changed.

That indeed is a huge problem for many Christians. One that really hits close to home.
Until university I was a “low-church” Anglican. My elderly mother still is, but she grew up as a Mennonite, and she still holds those beliefs.

novusCatholic, how long have you been part of the Church? I converted 15 years ago at the young age of 38. That was the best decision I ever made.

Back to the OP:
This video is truly inspiring when you observe the faithful drop to their knees in the Presence of our Lord!

I began attending Mass late last summer and joined the Church this past Easter Vigil. Before this past year, I knew very little about Catholicism and considered it different than “normal” Christianity. But, something sparked my interest. I began my research, and it didn’t take long for me to become convinced that the Catholic Church is the original and true Church. Once I realized that, then there was no point in being anywhere else. It’s been a great year. I only wish that I’d found her sooner (I’m 40).
