Focusing on the National Eucharistic Revival, now in its parish phase, communities of Catholic faithful across the Diocese are hard at work planning events that draw people into the Real Presence of Jesus.

• “Our God Keeps His Promises!” will be the theme of a Cohort mission to be held Oct. 23-25 in St. Anthony Church, 626 S. Olden Ave., Trenton.

Hosted by the Lumen Christi Cohort – which comprises St. Raphael-Holy Angels and Our Lady of Sorrows-St. Anthony Parishes, both Hamilton, and St. Gregory the Great Parish, Hamilton Square – the mission will be presented each evening from 7 to 9 p.m. by Father Martin O’Reilly, pastor of Mary, Mother of the Church Parish, Bordentown, episcopal vicar for Burlington County, and co-coordinator of the Eucharistic Revival for the Diocese.

Over the course of the evenings, Father O’Reilly will unveil the meaning and magnificence of how God has, throughout man’s history, kept his covenant promises to be with his people always.

In addition to Father O’Reilly’s presentations, the schedule includes Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament on Oct. 23; the Sacrament of Reconciliation on Oct. 24, and the celebration of Mass on Oct. 25. A reception will follow Mass.

• A night of Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament is planned Oct. 12 in St. Paul Church, 214 Nassau St., Princeton, from 6:30 to 10 p.m., led by Vincentian Father Thomas Sunil, director of the Divine Mercy Healing Center of Washington, N.J., and Easton, Pa. The evening will begin with praying the Rosary and quiet preparation for the Sacrament of Reconciliation. Mass will be celebrated at 7:30 p.m., concurrent with Confessions, and healing Adoration will follow at 8:30 p.m.

Father Sunil has been conducting Catholic Charismatic Prayer Services for more than 17 years and includes retreats and one-day conventions. Founded in 1999 by members of the Vincentian Congregation and lay faithful, the non-profit Divine Mercy Healing Center serves more than 1,000 people annually.
