The end of a Mass normally ends with prayer. But on March 5, parishioners in Connecticut were stunned when their pastor paused right after the concluding rites.
St. Thomas Catholic Church in Thomaston, Connecticut, within the Archdiocese of Hartford, may have had a Eucharistic miracle take place during Communion.
“We had something happen. It’s hard to say, actually,” said Father Joseph Crowley, the pastor of St. Thomas.
“God provides. It’s strange how God does that, and it happened today,” said Father Crowley, according to a video.
He went on to explain that an extraordinary minister of Communion, while distributing the Eucharist, noticed that she was running out of Hosts. At a certain point, she discovered that her ciborium — which had been nearly empty — was full again. Father Crowley verified that there were more Hosts in the ciborium at the end of Mass than at the beginning of Communion.
Now, the archdiocese has sent its investigative findings to the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith in Rome.
