CV NEWS FEED // Spirit Filled Hearts Ministry has announced the nationwide theatrical debut of a new film centered on the Real Presence of Jesus Christ in the Eucharist: “Jesus Thirsts: The Miracle of the Eucharist.”
The feature documentary, which is produced by Executive Producer and Spirit Filled Hearts President Deacon Steve Greco and co-sponsored by the Catholic Diocese of Orange, will be released in theaters across the US on June 4, 5, and 6 in English and Spanish. The film also includes the Knights of Columbus’ “Our Lady of Guadalupe: Woman of the Eucharist,” as a bonus feature.
The film’s director, Tim Moriarty, is widely known for his recently successful Castletown Media film in 2022, “Mother Teresa: No Greater Love.”
The Eucharist is “not just a symbol,” Moriarty stated in the Ministry’s press release, “It is Jesus Himself.”
He continued:
This film is crafted to ignite that realization in the hearts of those who see it […] As our team at Castletown Media worked on the film, we knew we needed to show the universality of our faith and how the Eucharist unites us as one body in Christ. We hope that it will spur a movement that leads people back to Mass, Eucharistic Adoration, and ultimately, a belief in the Real Presence of Christ in the Eucharist.
Filmed in the US, Poland, Italy, Bosnia, Herzegovina, Uganda, Canada, and Slovenia, “Jesus Thirsts” includes a wide range of authoritative voices within the Catholic Church, such as Founder and President of the St Paul Center for Biblical Theology Dr. Scott Hahn, FOCUS Catholic Founder Curtis Martin, and National Eucharistic Revival Chairman Bishop Andrew Cozzens.
“This movie belongs to the Body of Christ,” Deacon Greco stated: “and it’s our time to bring our brothers and sisters home to the True Presence of Jesus Christ. Together, we have a massive opportunity to bring a cinematic catechesis to the world! Do not miss it!”
