This experiential event begins with a prayer service led by Bishop Larry J. Kulick followed by a keynote address regarding the gift of the Eucharist from Monsignor Raymond Riffle, Vicar General of the Diocese of Greensburg and Rector of Blessed Sacrament Cathedral, Greensburg.
Afterward, attendees will make their way through the rooms at Christ Our Shepherd Center for an unforgettable Eucharistic journey. One room will feature a life-sized print of The Last Supper mural created by Italian Renaissance artist Leonardo da Vinci along with an explanation of its scriptural nuances from art historian Liz Lev, a former didactic consultant for the Vatican Museums, who recorded a special talk on the subject for the Diocese of Greensburg from Rome.
Another room will feature Monsignor Michael Begolly, Pastor of Mother of Sorrows Parish, Murrysville, discussing his recent pilgrimage to the Holy Land and preparing to receive the Eucharist. Fr. Christopher Pujol, Episcopal Master of Ceremonies and Parochial Vicar of Blessed Sacrament Cathedral, Greensburg, will lead a discussion and demonstration in another room about the significance of washing feet.
Bishop Kulick will discuss the bread of life and the symbolism of Easter bread while guests try some samples of Paska. This event is free of charge as part of the Diocese of Greensburg's Eucharistic Revival efforts. Seating is limited.
