ANTHONY OF PADUA CHURCH LORAIN, OH ADORATION CHAPEL “Not only is the entire history of salvation present in the Eucharist, but also the Trinity which is it’s author. The Father so loved the world that He gave His Only-begotten Son to save it; the Son so loved men as to give up His life for them; Father and Son willed to unite men so intimately to themselves that they infused the Holy Spirit in them so that their own life would dwell in their hearts.” ~Fr. Raniero Cantalamessa It was a glorious feast of the town and Don Garnier had erected an especially magnificent repository for the Blessed Sacrament. At 3:00 am of the feast, Don Garnier returned to the church and saw a glow around the chapel in which the Blessed Sacrament was exposed. Fearing the church was on fire, he ran to the nearby Benedictine monastery for help. Accompanied by several monks, they returned to the church and opened the door to witness a miracle. The Monstrance was suspended in mid-air. The stone, which was previ- ously underneath the Monstrance, lay in three fragments on the floor surrounded by the broken remains of the altar and candles. The Monks, who had fallen away in belief and practice, fell to their knees in adora- tion of the Sacred Host who they recognized as their Lord and Savior. This miracle inspired many conver- sions of those who had fallen away from Jesus and was declared valid by the Bishop within a few months.
