Summary
Patrick reflects on the many profound experiences from the National Eucharistic Congress. With over 60,000 attendees filled with devotion and unity, the stories and reflections are truly heartwarming. He shares personal insights, addresses skeptics, and discusses the importance of the Eucharist in deepening our faith.
- Jodi - How do I refute Protestant ideas about the Eucharist only being a symbol? Is it a good argument to say that Jesus was being literal because when he was with his disciples he spoke plainly to them? (08:29)
- Brent - I ran my first marathon last year, and hurt myself. I prayed for healing at a healing Mass at the NEC and the pain in my feet went away which allowed me to do the rest of the congress. I wanted to run another Marathon and ended up walking the same distance during the Congress. It was a God moment for me. (17:38)
- Christina - Even traveling with 2 young kids, I was still able to have a great experience even though there were challenges. Being there allowed me to center on what was important (22:45)
- Robert – I had never heard of Relevant Radio until the NEC
- Elizabeth - I went to all 5 days of the NEC and thanks to Relevant Radio! (33:50)
- June – I was a volunteer at the NEC. I met someone who was interested in becoming Catholic at the event.
- Lin – The NEC was a great event!
- Jeremy - Really enjoyed having Relevant Radio at the NEC. Attended on Wednesday and Thursday. Listened to it on the radio when not able to be there. (47:11)
- Jackie – Thank you to Relevant Radio for broadcasting the NEC
