A Eucharistic faith brings peace in turbulent times

Preaching only a day after the assassination attempt on the life of former President Donald Trump, US Bishop Andrew Cozzens reflected on the assurance, confidence and peace that our Eucharistic faith brings in an often turbulent and even violent world. It is perhaps providential then that the National Eucharistic Congress opens this very week, writes Daniel Ang from Indianapolis.
