The STA Young Adult Ministry is happy to host an official screening of Jesus Thirsts, The Miracle of the Eucharist to the St. Thomas The Apostle Parish community!
This visually stunning film takes viewers on a global journey to uncover the transformative power of the Eucharist. Engaging in profound dialogue with prominent Catholic leaders, the film explores the biblical origins of the Eucharist and shares powerful personal stories of lives transformed by the Blessed Sacrament. This exploration makes it unmistakably clear that the Eucharist is not merely a symbol, but is indeed Jesus Christ Himself — fervently desiring to quench our spiritual thirst with His boundless love.
Inspiring insights from Scott Hahn, Chris Stefanik, Bishop Andrew Cozzens, Noelle Mering, Tim Gray, Fr. Donald Calloway, Eduardo Verastegui, Fr. Robert Spitzer, SJ, and many others.
The movie will be hosted in the parish center on Friday, January 10, 2025, at 6pm. Tickets are $11 for adults and $9 for children. Tickets are available at https://brushfire.com/faithcontentnetwork/jesusthirsts-themiracleoftheeucharist/592340/tickets
