Real Presence

[lakotak]

When a Eucharistic Miracle occurs and there is Church approval, does anyone know where this information if found. Where would I go to look up Church miracles?

…however, the Vatican tests these occurences, as Lormar said, so no need to worry anyway.

…woah! Just editing this: the Church has an agenda?!!..

The Church does not lie.

The Church does not, but individual members can, even clergy

The Church does not say whether any particular apparition or Eucharistic miracle took place, only that there is nothing contrary to belief in them.

I believe that the miracle of the Eucharist IS the Eucharist itself. It amazes me that Jesus, the Son of God, would humble Himself and come to us in the Eucharist. That is the miracle for me. Praise the Blessed Sacrament in all of the tabernacles in the whole world.

I just read the above linked thread here.

Faith, it appears to me that you would rather believe the poster who suddenly appeared with his “info-mercial” to get you to buy a book that disproves the miracle.

Gracie, whom I know to be an excellent Catholic, would not lie to you. She is there in Argentina. She told you that the miracle has official Church approval. What more do you want?

Lormar…:hug3:

Why do people focus so much on “miracles” ( I don’t mean those in the Bible) or “private revelations”

I honestly don’t pay them much heed. They are not a required belief. They do not add anything to the deposit of faith. They are not necessary for our salvation.

My opinion is that anyone who hangs their hat on these being true and should be believed must be pretty weak in their faith.

Believing in the Real Presence has nothing to do with believing or not believing in these other things. They are not related in any shape or form.

I agree. The Real Presence is miracle enough. I do see “miracles” around me, but it’s more things like someone reconciling with an estranged spouse or an alcoholic overcoming his or her addiction, or a long-lapsed Catholic walking through a Church door and asking for confession. Real everyday miracles that you can hang your hat on and are proof of the Holy Spirit still taking an active role in this woe-begotten world.

I admit, my faith is weak.
