The National Eucharistic Revival eagerly invites parishes into the grassroots movement to restore understanding and devotion to the source and summit of the Catholic faith with a new Leader’s Playbook for the Year of Parish Revival. As the multi-year National Eucharistic Revival prepares to enter into the Year of the Parish on the Solemnity of Corpus Christi, the Leader’s Playbook is a guide offering concrete steps for parishes to bolster their Eucharistic culture and effectively share the gift of the Eucharist with all Catholics in the pews, but especially those who have not fully encountered Christ in the Holy Eucharist. Designed to be adapted and customized for implementation within each unique pastoral setting, the Leader’s Playbook is meant to help pastors and parish leaders answer the question, “What are we being asked to do to live out the Year of Parish Revival?”
