The Eucharistic Heart of Jesus

Summary/Abstract: The Eucharist in its fullness and richness includes all events of the history of salvation, especially those concerning the Person of the Word Incarnated. The Eucharist as a sacrament is a memory, the sacrifice of Christ and the Church, the communion with Christ and with our brothers and sisters. The worship of Christ in the Eucharist present in the tabernacle or exposed in the Blessed Sacrament shows the Heart which loves and always offers to the Father reparation for all the sins of humans all around the world. Firstly, from the historical-spiritual and theological perspectives, we speak about the Eucharistic Heart of Jesus. This mystery has been taken up and developed by the spiritual current of the French School and, above all, by the persons dedicated to the cult of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. The issue of the Eucharistic Heart was also taken into consideration by the popes during the International Eucharistic Congresses because the Eucharistic devotion embraces everything. Among those who made an important contribution to the development of this spirituality, apart from St. Margaret Mary Alacoque, was venerable Father Leo Dehon, the founder of the Congregation dedicated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus.
