You're listening to Catholic Sprouts, the daily podcast for Catholic kids that strives to plant seeds of faith.

Hey there, Spouts. Today is Thursday, May 23rd, 2019. This week on the Catholic Sprouts podcast,

we are doing a tribute to all you new first communicants by talking about some incredible

eucharistic miracles. We've already talked about how believing that Jesus is truly present in the Eucharist

is a little bit hard because we don't have proof. It still looks and feels and tastes like bread

and wine. But that very often Jesus has loved us enough to give us a little bit of proof

through Eucharistic miracles.

On the first miracle, Jesus made it so that a host bled and actually had tissue.

And this tissue was tested and found to be from the heart and the blood remains new even 1300 years later. Next, we looked at another miraculous time when a host

bled, and also a time from the 1700s when hosts were made dirty, and yet 300 years later,

they're still preserved. They haven't disintegrated at all. Today, we are going to look at a whole bunch of examples of times when there

have been Eucharistic miracles in the last 20 years. If you think that these miracles only

happened a long time ago, then you're wrong. They are still happening today. In fact, they might be happening right now.

The Eucharist is real and these things still happen. So the first miracle we're going to talk about

happened in India in 2001. And here's what happened. A priest was saying mass once again.

He held up the host and he was shocked to see that there was red on the host. He didn't really know what it wasn't. In fact,

he was a little bit frightened. So he put the host in the tabernacle for a few days. A few days

later when he returned, he removed the host and he saw the image of a face on it.

It seems that the red material of blood had formed into the outline of a face. Now, I know that

might sound a little bit crazy, but if you or your parent or your teacher will like to go online

and Google research the Eucharistic Miracle in India in 2001, you can see an image of it.

And this is something once again that is on display. If you travel to this parish, you can see
