“Belong entirely to God through love, entirely to your neighbor through a gracious charity, entirely to the divine Eucharist by the offering and sacrifice of your whole self. Bear with yourself in the patience of our Lord.”
(To Mrs. Stephanie Gourde, October 23, 1859)

“The essential thing is to strengthen our trust in God, feed upon his truth, dedicate ourselves to his glory as our sovereign love, love him in everything, everywhere, and above everything” (To Countess D’Andigne, January 20, 1865)

“When we work hard, we must eat well. What a joy, that you can receive Holy Communion often! It’s our life and support in this life — Receive Communion often, and Jesus will change you into himself.” (To Mme. Grisaud, January 13, 1855)

“Keep your soul at peace, in order to be able to be attentive and very faithful to the inner movement of the Holy Spirit.” (To Mme. Stephanie Gourde, November 25, 1850)

St Peter Julian Eymard love to adore the blessed Sacrament.
Adoration is an ancient tradition of the Church. As Catholics we believe that at the consecration during the Mass, the bread and wine cease to exist and in their place are the body and blood, soul and divinity of Jesus. This is the Eucharist. The Eucharist is not simply a symbol or a sign of Jesus - Jesus is really present under the appearance of bread and wine. At Mass we can be in communion with Jesus in the Eucharist. Outside of Mass, we can visit Jesus (who is present in the Eucharist). When we pray to Jesus who is before us in the Eucharist, we are adoring him. This is what adoration is.

Cemetery, rear of Chapelle St Pierre-Julien Eymard
Cnr avenue du Docteur Tagnard & rue Saint-Jean, La Mure, France [ Map ]
Three adjoining gravestones in the cemetery at La Mure commemorate Peter Julian Eymard and his sisters.
Significance
A memorial gravestone marks the first burial place of Peter Julian Eymard, whose grave was located in this cemetery from the time of his death in 1868 until 1877, when his remains were removed and reinterred at the Corpus Christi Chapel in Paris.

In a reference to the prayer before the Blessed Sacrament that characterised Eymard's religious life, his memorial is in the form of a prie-dieu surmounted by a monstrance. Around the monstrance is a liturgical stole, symbolic of the Cross of Christ that Eymard carried throughout his life's mission as a priest. Resting on the prie-dieu is an open prayer book with the inscription: 'Let us love Jesus who so loves us in His Divine Sacrament'.

Alongside, a tombstone marks the grave of Eymard's adoptive sister Annette Bernard, usually known as Nanette, who died on 18 November 1885. Another tombstone marks the grave of Eymard's sister Marie Anne (Marianne) who died on 17 February 1876.

There was much local opposition to the removal of Eymard's remains from La Mure to Paris in 1877. This controversial event did not occur until after the death of his sister Marianne.

Former parish rectory
Place de l'Église, Chatte, France [ Map ]
Eymard's residence at Chatte in the 1830s is commemorated by a plaque on the wall of the former rectory building opposite the present church. The plaque was installed in 2004 to mark the 170th anniversary of Eymard's arrival in the town.
Significance
In October 1834, Eymard's first pastoral appointment in the Diocese of Grenoble was the position of assistant-priest at Chatte, a small farming village about sixty kilometres west of Grenoble. As a young priest here, Eymard worked hard to complete his studies and to develop his skills as a preacher.

'I must learn to speak to the hearts of people', he wrote.

Eymard read the Scriptures every day and prayed before the Blessed Sacrament in the mornings and evenings. He devoted himself to the parish ministries of celebrating Masses, visiting the sick, counselling and hearing confessions, and the religious instruction of children.

He also gained a reputation at Chatte for his generosity to the poor. So often did Eymard share his meagre stipend with those in need that the locals began to call him 'le panier percé' (the leaky bucket).

It was during his term at Chatte that Eymard became familiar with the Calvary at the nearby rock of Saint-Romans, where he received a special grace that he would treasure throughout his life. Eymard remained at Chatte until mid-1837, when he was appointed parish priest at Monteynard.

69 rue du Breuil (Route Napoléon), La Mure, France [ Map ]
St Peter Julian Eymard was born in a bedroom on the ground floor of a three-storey house in the main street of La Mure (at 69 rue du Breuil). The ground floor of this house is now owned by the Blessed Sacrament Congregation and is preserved as a 'place of memory'. A museum exhibition dedicated to Eymard (Expo Père Eymard) was opened here in February 2011, during the 200th anniversary year of Eymard's birth.
Significance
The ground floor of the house at 69 rue du Breuil, La Mure was rented by Eymard's parents from some time after their marriage in November 1804 until circa 1815 or possibly a little earlier.

On the right of the ground floor corridor is the bedroom where Eymard was born on 4 February 1811.

His father Julien's knife sharpening business was located in a room on the left of the corridor.

St Peter Julian Eymard was beginning to have a real love for not only the Blessed Virgin Mary, but also for the Sacrament of Eucharist. He would often spend hours in the church saying prayers to the Blessed Sacrament, (The bread that is kept in the Tabernacle in church). St. Peter Julian Eymard felt the strong presence of Jesus in the blessed bread. It was as though he could touch, feel and sense Jesus’ presence.

Here is a video of Priests performing a special prayer to the Eucharist. This would be a very similar prayer to what St. Peter Julian Eymard would pray.

Gracious God of our ancestors,
you led Peter Julian Eymard,
like Jacob in times past,
on a journey of faith.
Under the guidance of your gentle Spirit,
Peter Julian discovered the gift of love in the Eucharist
which your son Jesus offered for the hungers of humanity.
Grant that we may celebrate this mystery worthily, adore it profoundly,
and proclaim it prophetically for your greater glory. Amen.
