EUCHARIST MIRACLES DOCUMENTED

regina

Bolsena  

Nearly 800 years ago, there was a German priest named Peter who had found it hard to believe that Jesus was truly present in the Eucharist. One day, Father Peter was celebrating Mass when something unusual happened — he saw drops of blood coming from the Host onto the cloth and altar. Father Peter was surprised and went to the nearby city of Orvieto to tell the Pope. The Pope listened carefully, sent people to check and confirmed what had happened. The cloth stained with the blood was then placed in the Orvieto Cathedral. Because of this event, the Pope started a special Church celebration called Corpus Christi to honour the Body of Christ. 

Cascia  

In 1330, a priest in the Italian town of Siena did not believe the Eucharist (Holy Communion) was special. When asked to bring Holy Communion to a sick man, instead of carrying the Host properly in a special container called a pyx, he carelessly placed it between the pages of his prayer book. When he arrived and opened the book, the Host was bleeding and stained the pages with real blood! The priest was scared and confessed to Blessed Simon Fidati, a holy man. The priest was sorry, and Blessed Simon forgave him and saved the stained pages. One of the stained pages is kept in Cascia and the people of Cascia honour this miraculous event every year till today.  

Krakow  

In 1345, in a village near Krakow in Poland, thieves broke into a church and stole a special container called a monstrance, which held the Holy Communion Hosts. When the thieves realised the monstrance was not made of real gold, they threw it into a muddy field. That night, a strange light shone from the field. Villagers saw the light and told the Bishop, who asked everyone to pray and fast for three days. On the third day, the Bishop led a group of people to the field and found the monstrance. They saw that the light came from the stolen monstrance and the Hosts were unbroken and clean. The Hosts were returned to the church and did not spoil over time. Tests have shown that the Hosts are still as fresh today. 

Lanciano 

In Lanciano, Italy, a Basilian monk was celebrating mass and doubted the real presence of Christ in the Eucharist.  Then something amazing happened -- the Host turned into real flesh and the wine turn into real blood. The church kept the miracle safe. Scientist later studied it and found that the flesh is human heart tissue and the blood is human blood type AB. Today you can still see and visit this Eucharistic Miracles at St Francis Church in Lanciano. 

Santarem  

In 1266, a woman in Satarem, Portugal, was very upset because her husband was unfaithful. A sorcerer told her to steal a Holy Communion Host from church. She took the Host and tried to hide the Host, but the Host started to bleed as she left! Scared, she hid it in a wooden trunk at home. That night, a bright light shone from the trunk, and she and her husband knew a miracle had happened. They told the priest, who brought the Host back to church in a special procession. The Host kept bleeding for three days. Today, you can still see this amazing miracle in the church where the Host is kept. 

Siena 

The Eucharist Miracle of Siena happen in 1730. Thieves stole Holy Communion Hosts from the Basilica of San Francesco. Three days later, the Hosts was found intact in a poor box of Santa Maria in Provenzano. The priest immediately brought the Hosts back to San Francesco in a solemn procession. Over time, these Hosts never rotted. They still look and smell like fresh bread. Scientist studied them and found no natural reason for this. The Hosts have remained fresh for 300 years. Today, the Hosts are kept on display in the Basilica of San Francesco.  

Walldurn  

In 1330, in Walldürn, Germany, a priest accidentally spilled the Holy Communion Wine during Mass. The wine soaked the cloth on the altar and formed an image of Jesus on the cross, surrounded by eleven faces of Jesus wearing a crown of thorns. The priest was scared and hid the cloth without telling anyone. Many years later, before he died, he finally told the truth and revealed the cloth. People began to visit and pray, and many miracles were reported. In 1445, the Pope recognised the miracle. A beautiful church, now the Basilica of Saint George, was built to honour it. Today, many people still visit Walldürn to see the special cloth.

The mouse, chicken, pig and cow

A mouse looked through the crack in the wall to see the farmer and his wife open a package.   "What food might this contain?"  The mouse wondered. He was devastated to discover it was a mousetrap. Retreating to the farmyard, the mouse proclaimed this warning: "There is a mousetrap in the house! There is a mousetrap in the house!" The chicken clucked and scratched, raised her head and said, "Mr. Mouse, I can tell this is a grave concern to you, but it is of no consequence to me.  I cannot be bothered by it."   The mouse turned to the pig and told him, "There is a mousetrap in the house! There is a mousetrap in the house!" The pig sympathized, but said, "I am so very sorry, Mr. Mouse, but there is nothing I can do about it but pray. Be assured you are in my prayers." The mouse turned to the cow and said, "There is a mousetrap in the house! There is a mousetrap in the house!"           ...

In 2019, Toyota Boshoku Corporation, a major European supplier of Toyota auto parts, fell victim to a Business Email Compromise (BEC) scam, resulting in a loss of approximately $37 million (¥4 billion).

BEC scams like this rely on social engineering tactics rather than technical hacking. The perpetrators often impersonate trusted entities, such as executives or business partners, to deceive empl...
