What is an International Eucharistic Congress?

Eucharistic Congresses began in the 1880s to promote reverence for Christ’s real presence in the Eucharist, uniting Catholics in prayer and worship. They serve as vibrant, revitalising, faith-filled expressions of love for Jesus in the Eucharist, and the congress will be coming to Sydney in 2028!
