Prayer of reparation for offenses against the Eucharist

You can pray this prayer of praise and adoration to repair any offenses that occur against the Eucharist.

Catholics believe that Jesus is truly present, body, blood, soul and divinity, in the consecrated host at Mass. This means that the Eucharist is not simply bread, but Jesus himself.

When viewed in this light, it should pain us whenever we hear or witness offenses against the Eucharist. It is not an offense against a piece of bread, but an offense against the One we love with all of our heart, Jesus Christ.

In order to repair the spiritual damage done in such a situation, the Church provides the following prayer to be said.
