The Eucharist
SKU: 978-1944418816
Product Details
By François Mauriac
As a novelist, François Mauriac battled with the mystery of evil. Here, in The Eucharist: The Mystery of Holy Thursday, he brings into sharp relief the ever-new promise of God’s love—that He has come to save mankind. These pages offer a deeply moving meditation on two central mysteries of the Catholic faith—the sacrament of the Eucharist and the institution of the priesthood. Containing a veritable banquet of food for thought and prayer, The Eucharist is capable of informing and inspiring the faithful, but also of enlightening those who have yet to encounter Christ or His Church.
Comparable to the hagiographical works of Mauriac’s compatriot Georges Bernanos, The Eucharist: The Mystery of Holy Thursday is a profoundly personal act of faith in which the stuff of Catholic tradition is brought to rich, abundant life.
This is the belief of the most ordinary among the faithful. These are the feelings of one Christian among a thousand others, before the small Host. Such is the invisible God he sees, the hidden God he discerns. (François Mauriac)
François Mauriac (1885–1970) was a French Catholic novelist, poet, critic, and journalist. Critically acclaimed and respected, Mauriac received the Grand Prix du roman de l’Académie française for his novel The Desert of Love; was awarded the Grand Cross of the Légion d’honneur; and named laureate of the 1952 Nobel Prize in Literature.

I've purchased several items from you folks. The quality is unbelievable and the service matches that quality. The prices are so much lower than a standard jewelry store and again the quality is way better. They are outstanding as a gift. Thank you all.
Purchased a rosary for my nephew's confirmation. I had some questions along the way and customer service was very receptive and kind... Hard to find such good customer service these days. It was very refreshing and very much appreciated!
