About the Event

Our Lord Jesus Christ has bestowed on us a precious treasure: the gift of His Abiding Presence in the Blessed Sacrament, the Most Holy Sacrifice of the Altar.  Therefore, no one should ever approach the Holy Mass as merely some “obligation” on our “To-Do List”.  The Holy Eucharist has been called the "source and summit" of our Catholic faith, but do we really understand its true meaning?  What is meant by the “Real Presence” of Jesus in the Eucharist, how does this happen, and when did Christians first believe His words of consecration should be taken literally?

Fullness of Truth, therefore, on October 10th & 11th at the Plano Event Center in Plano / DFW, TX, in cooperation with the Catholic Marketing Network (CMN), appropriately returns to one of its central missions: to magnify their attendee’s love of Our Lord Jesus Christ, truly present in the Holy Eucharist!  This crucially important Fall Catholic Family Conference is entitled, “Blessed Be Jesus!: Most Holy Sacrament of the Altar”  Come explore both fresh insights and the non-negotiable truths related to the Holy Eucharist with Catholic evangelist & author, the “Dynamic Deacon”, DCN. HAROLD BURKE-SIVERS; Vatican-appointed Sacred Relics Curator & Exorcist, FR. CARLOS MARTINS; Catholic convert, apologist & author, TRENT HORN; Franciscan Friar & author, FR. JOSEMARIA BARBIN, FI; and the Science of Sainthood online prayer platform Founder, podcaster & author, MATTHEW LEONARD.  This conference will familiarize you with the truths of The Holy Eucharist embraced by theologians, saints and mystics, but sadly and too often have not been passed on to average, and even life-long Catholics in a meaningful way.  No matter how much or how little you already know about the Eucharist, the "secrets" revealed and revisited will bring you to a new, personal "Emmaus" experience, again and again, at every future Mass attended!
