Eucharist Miracle
l It dates back to 730-750 A.D. In that time while a monk was celebrating the Mass wondered if the eucharistic wafer and the wine really were the flesh and the blood of Jesus Christ.
![Page 16: Lanciano 3 a s.u](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032615/55a3066c1a28ab1a1c8b4728/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
l Suddenly the sacred wafer and the wine turned into a piece of bleeding flesh and into blood that soon coagulated.
Today the relics are kept in this tabernacle and pilgrims visit this church.
