Saint?

[jpowers]

I have been going to daily Mass lately and have been praying that Jesus will draw me closer to him in the Eucharist. I want to love the Eucharist even more than I currently do and pray every day that I will begin to love Jesus in the Eucharist more than anything in the world.
I would like the name of a saint who was particularly devoted to the Eucharist so that I can ask for their intercession as well. I do ask for help from the Blessed Virgin Mary.

St. Germaine Cousin was a girl who was abused by her mother and had to live in the barn and lived on small scraps from the table given to her. She was responsible for sherparding the sheep everyday. She had a deformed hand.

Anyway, every day she would leave the sheep and walk to Mass. Nothing ever happened to the sheep. Someone even saw the river parting for her on her way to Church. She died young, but her devotion to the Eucharist was great.

Also, St. Gemma Galgani, who was a stigmatist and mystic, was also very devoted to the Eucharist daily.

St Peter Julian Eymard

He was very devoted to the Blessed Sacrament. He founded the Congregation of the Blessed Sacrament and also has a couple of books: “The Real Presence” and “How to get more out of Holy Communion”
