On August 25, 2023 Pope Francis received at the Vatican the Sisters Disciples of the Eucharistic Jesus, on the 100th anniversary of their foundation. This Congregation, born in 1923 in a rural village of southern Italy, affected by the aftermaths of the First World War and the 1918 Spanish Flu Pandemic, is today present across the world with a charisma that is firmly anchored in the mystery of the Eucharist. By remembering the Congregation’s humble beginnings, Pope Francis highlighted the power that prayer and Eucharistic adoration can have for all Catholics.
