We're certain this event has the best intentions . . . We're also certain that protesters will take the opportunity to steal the spotlight from prayers of the faithful and focus on longstanding grievances against the Church.

"On Saturday, May 4, the Archdiocese of Kansas City in Kansas is co-sponsoring with the Diocese of Kansas City-St. Joseph in Missouri a local experience of Eucharistic Revival. Behold KC promises to be an inspiring and historic eucharistic celebration in the heart of Kansas City. It will be held on the North Lawn of the World War I Museum and Memorial, across from Union Station in Kansas City, Missouri.
"The site is a historic gathering place for the Kansas City metro community — a place of celebration and civic pride. It is also a place where last February, during the Super Bowl victory celebration, we were tragically reminded of our broken world and our desperate need for God’s mercy and healing.
"The date and site were chosen because, on May 4, 1941, when our nation was on the verge of entering World War II, tens of thousands of Kansas City Catholics gathered for prayer and eucharistic adoration at this same place. We want to reclaim prayerfully and consecrate this space as holy ground for the people of Missouri and Kansas."

It is almost 70 years since I made my first Communion. I still have memories of that day.
