"St. Francis knew always that the center of the Church is the Eucharist, where the Body and Blood of Christ are made present. Through the priesthood, the Eucharist is the Church. Where priesthood, and Christ and communion of the Church go together, only there does the Word of God also dwell….In Francis, love for Christ is expressed in a special way in adoration of the Most Blessed Sacrament of the Eucharist." (Pope Benedict XVI, 1/27/10)
