            The Catholic Church of Pakistan is celebrating 2018 as a year dedicated to the Eucharist. In keeping with this, all the dioceses are offering the faithful a deeper catechesis on the Eucharist each Sunday and are also strongly encouraging Eucharistic adoration.

            To contribute to the spiritual success of this Year, which is in great harmony with the Pauline spirituality, the Daughters of St. Paul have prepared an Urdu translation of The Little Catechism on the Eucharist, which adapts and completes the text in accord with the local culture. The first part of the book contains a well-explained catechesis on the Eucharist in words understandable to everyone, the second part recounts miracles associated with the Eucharist, and the third presents the saints who had a particular devotion to the Eucharist, including Blessed James Alberione. The book, which bears a Preface written by the Archbishop of Lahore, was launched in the Cathedrals of Lahore, Karachi, Rawalpindi and Multan.

            Our sisters have also prepared a brochure on Eucharistic adoration in the spirit of the Pauline Hour of Adoration, which they are offering free of charge to parishes and the faithful as the FSP contribution to Pakistan’s Year of the Eucharist.
