"My wish is for this event to be free just as the Eucharist is free, the encounter with the Eucharist will be free." — Father Juan Guido, Eucharistic Revival Committee chairman
The Diocese of Little Rock will end its celebration of the Year of Diocesan Revival with two Eucharistic Revival Days in June. This concludes the first year of the National Eucharistic Revival, which continues through 2025. This first year invited diocesan staff, bishops and priests to respond to the Lord’s personal invitation and equip them to share this love with the faithful through diocesan eucharistic congresses and other events. | See DOLR Events.

One will be held at St. Raphael Church in Springdale on Saturday, June 3 and the second will be held at Christ the King Church in Little Rock on Saturday, June 10.
