Archbishop Etienne filmed a series of videos on the key topics he highlighted in his pastoral letter The Work of Redemption: Eucharistic Belief and Practice in the Archdiocese of Seattle, including three videos with local young adults discussing real issues and the challenges we face today and how the Eucharist can truly nourish us. These videos may be used as the starting point for discussions with small groups. The Real Presence Teacher's Guide for middle school and high school students includes discussion and writing prompts on the two videos which focus on the real presence of Christ in the Eucharist.
To access the videos, please visit the Come and Be Fed page on the Archdiocese of Seattle website.
