Miracles of the Eucharist

In the 1970's while on Pilgrimage to the Shrines of Italy, Bob and Penny Lord, renowned Catholic authors, visited the Church of Saint Francis of Assisi in Siena, Italy.

Inside the Church they discovered the Miracle of the Eucharist of Siena.

At that time they met the custodian of the Miracle, Father Antonio Giannini.

He immediately began to give them a lot of information about Miracles of the Eucharist all over Europe.

It turns out that Father Antonio was the foremost authority on Miracles of the Eucharist in the world.

He even wrote a book about them so years earlier and sold only a few copies.

A few years later after giving much information to Bob and Penny, he asked them the question, "When are you going to write your book?'

At that time Bob and Penny were directing Pilgrimages and had no intention to write a book, nor had they ever written one.

After a divine turn of events, they wrote the book, Miracles of the Eucharist in 1986.

By another divine turn of events, Mother Angelica, foundress of Eternal Word Global television network, asked them to come to Birmingham and talk about this book.

During the interview, December 1986, she asked them to do a series on Miracles of the Eucharist.

That was the beginning of the Catholic in America being exposed to the Miracles of the Eucharist.

The first recorded Miracle of the Eucharist occurred in Lanciano, Italy in the eighth century.
