Our Lady of the Most Blessed Sacrament Apostolate was founded 20 years ago, in the Year of the Eucharist, as a small family apostolate.  The mission of the apostolate is to help bring about the Eucharistic Reign of Jesus in the hearts of people, homes, apostolates, businesses, the Church, and the world.   The apostolate will do this by practically and spiritually helping people to understand and accept the Church's call to make the Eucharist the source, the love, and the summit of their lives. 

 

To achieve this beautiful mission, we invoke the assistance of the Blessed Mother under the title of Our Lady of the Most Blessed Sacrament.  We seek her intercession along with St. Peter Julian Eymard, the Apostle of the Eucharist, to help people to come to know, love, and serve our Lord Jesus in the Holy Eucharist. 

 

Our apostolate will achieve this mission through a four part strategy:

• Creating and sharing practical and inspiring catechesis on the Real Presence of Jesus in the Holy Eucharist.  We will leverage the official teachings of the Church and the writings of the saints, particularly St. Peter Julian Eymard and his library of Eucharistic writings. 

• Helping to promote devotion to Our Lady of the Most Blessed Sacrament.  Drawing form the Mariology of St. Peter Julian Eymard we will help Catholics grow in understanding that it is only through 'true devotion' to Mary that we can achieve 'true devotion' to Jesus in the Eucharist.

• Promoting a simple, but very profound devotion called the Blessed Sacrament Chaplet, through which people can spiritually receive our Lord in the Eucharist, as often as they pray it, and develop the habit of integrating adoration of the Eucharist and mental prayer.

• Creating an association for men to support and be supported in advancing the mission.  Inspired by the writings of St. Peter Julian Eymard it will be called Miles Dei Eucharistia, which means, soldiers of our Eucharistic God.  CLICK TO LEARN MORE

 

Through this four part strategy, we hope to be a mission critical ally of the Church in her efforts to overcome the current crises of faith in the Eucharist and enter into a new era in which the laity personally make the Eucharist the source, the love and the summit of their lives.

THE CHAPLET AND THE APOSTOLATE ORIGINS

The Blessed Sacrament Chaplet was created by the Congregation of the Blessed Sacrament which was founded by St. Peter Julian Eymard.   It was also St. Peter who gave our Blessed Mother the title of Our Lady of the Most Blessed Sacrament, which was officially approved during St. Peter’s canonization.   We came to find this chaplet, St. Peter Julian, and Our Lady of the Most Blessed Sacrament through a significant act of Providence detailed in the Founding Story section of the About menu.  The Chaplet was created near the turn of the 20th century, but has been largely been lost in the Church.  Like many things in Church history that are lost and found, or take time to develop, we believe that for such a time as this the chaplet has been found again.  Please see the Blessed Sacrament Chaplet in our About section of the website for full details on the devotion.

​

For many years we ran this as a small local family apostolate through which we made and distributed Blessed Sacrament chaplets in our local community.  While we have touched thousands of lives over the last 20 years, it is time to do more.  For such a time as this, with the renewed Church-wide focus on restoring faith in the Real Presence of Jesus in the Eucharist we have relaunched this apostolate on a full-scale basis help bring about the Eucharistic reign of Jesus.    

 

While we are relaunching this in stages as providence provides, it is our intention to scale this in a professional manner, leveraging what is best in communications, technology, marketing and business management to create an organization capable of reaching the masses to help restore faith in our Lord's Real Presence in the Eucharist.  We will help Catholics throughout the Church, to personally make the Eucharist the source, the love and the summit of their lives, and thereby bring about the Eucharistic Reign of Jesus.
