After his ordination in 1901, he was sent to preach at a church which he found to be unclean and abandoned. There, praying before a Tabernacle covered in dust and cobwebs, with torn altar cloths and oil dripping onto the floor from the sanctuary lamp, he decided to dedicate his life to providing for Jesus' needs in the Tabernacle. This poor, abandoned Tabernacle taught the young priest more about the Love of Jesus than his years of theological study. It marked his entire life from that moment. He dedicated himself until his death to spreading devotion to the Eucharist, proclaiming these words which he would go on to choose for his epitaph: "Jesus is here! He is here! Do not abandon Him!" This saintly bishop will help you to receive Holy Communion more fervently and to love Jesus more deeply in Eucharistic Adoration. This book will awaken you to a new experience of Our Lord -- that you may see, hear, love, and console "Love who is not loved."</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"That disciple whom Jesus loved said to<br /> Peter, 'It is the Lord'" ( Jn 21:7). In the Gospel we<br /> have heard that seeing the miracle worked, a disciple<br /> recognizes Jesus. The others will recognize him later.<br /> In presenting to us Jesus who "came and took the<br /> bread and gave it to them" ( Jn 21:13), the Gospel<br /> points out how and when we can meet the risen<br /> Christ: in the Eucharist, where Jesus is truly present<br /> under the appearances of bread and wine. It would be<br /> sad if, after so long, the Savior's loving presence were<br /> still to be unknown by humanity.<br /> This was the great passion of the new blessed, <br /> Bl. Manuel González García, Bishop of Malaga and<br /> later of Palencia. His experience before a deserted tabernacle<br /> in Palomares del Río was to mark his whole<br /> life, and from that moment he dedicated himself to<br /> spreading devotion to the Eucharist, proclaiming the<br /> words he subsequently chose as his epitaph: "Here is<br /> Jesus! He is here! Do not abandon him!" Bl. Manuel<br /> González, founder of the Misioneras Eucarísticas de<br /> Nazaret, is a model of Eucharistic faith whose example<br /> continues to speak to the Church today.<br /> St. John Paul II<br /> Homily for the beatification of<br /> Bishop Manuel González García<br /> April 29th, 2001</p><p>Foreword<br /> On October 16, 2</p><br>
