Why don't Eucharistic miracles get more publicity?

[Cone]

So we know that there have been many Eucharistic miracles over the years, most notably the 700 A.D. Lanciano miracle and the one Buenos Aires in the 1990s. We know that the scientific studies have produced extraordinary results, including consistent blood typing (AB), such that the only explanation is that they are irrefutable proof of the real presence (excluding the possibility of fraud). So why doesn’t the Church, whose mission is to evangelize, make a better effort had publicizing these miracles? Why is it that so few people outside of well informed Catholics have even heard of these miracles?

I had been a Catholic for years before I first heard about Eucharistic miracles. I’m sure that many are in the same boat. I cannot say exactly why this is the case. but I believe that we should do what is in our power to spread the truth of the Real Presence - esp. with Catholics and other Christians.

For those interested, I have compiled a list of 101 mystical experiences involving the Eucharist in the lives of different Saints, Beati etc. I hope it is permissible to post the link here:

(All of the information has been taken from reliable Catholic books with an Imprimatur. I would have copy-and-pasted the information, but it would take several posts).

I have the impression that the secular media doesn’t want to ‘promote’ the reality of Jesus Christ.

People who already believe in the Real Presence don’t need such demonstrations, and people who don’t believe in the Real Presence have already rejected Christ’s own words in Scripture - why would they accept a lab test whose veracity could be open to numerous questions?

I am really surprised the Buenos Aires Eucharistic miracle has not received more attention since Pope Francis had a part in the story when he was Bishop or Archbishop in Argentina. There is a book written about this, but right now it is only in Spanish. It is being translated into English now and should be out soon.

Perhaps it’s along the lines of, “blessed are those who have not seen and yet believe”? I don’t know. I find the Eucharistic miracles beautiful reinforcements to my faith.
