September 3 - Saint Pius X

 

Perhaps what is known most about this great pope was his intense love of children, the catechesis, and the Eucharist. He encouraged receiving the Eucharist frequently and lowered the age of the First Communion for the children so that as soon as they could reason, they could approach the Sacrament.

How much do you value the Eucharist? What does it mean for you to receive the Body of Christ?
