Qué Hace Y Qué Dice El Corazón de Jesús En El Sagrario

St. Manuel González García (1877-1940) was ordained a priest in 1901 and named bishop of Málaga, Spain, in 1920 and bishop of Palencia, Spain, in 1935. He helped found the Congregation of the Eucharistic Missionaries of Nazareth, the Disciples of Saint John, and the Children of Reparation. After his ordination, 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 all his years of theological study and marked his life from that moment forward. 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!"
