Eucharistic Congress

This weekend, tens of thousands Slovenian Catholics will stream to the Eucharistic Congress held in Celje, Slovenia. Several years of careful planning and praying will converge at the Congress in honor of the Real Presence of Christ in the Blessed Sacrament. As the Divine Providence would have it, the fuller meaning of the Eucharist will be magnified by the beatification of the young Slovenian student martyr, the Blessed Alojzij Grozde.

The congress, which is the country's first since 1937, will take place in Celje on June 13, 2010 with the theme “Eucharist - God's gift for life”. Some 25,000 participants are expected for the event which will highlight the importance of the Mass and solidarity among believers. http://evharisticni-kongres.rkc.si/?mod=3
