Today is the feast day of sweet Servant of God Julia Greeley, such a gentle and loving apostle of the Sacred Heart.

This painting was made by human hands.
Oil on canvas.

Julia Greeley, Denver’s Angel of Charity, was born into slavery,in Missouri, sometime between 1833 and 1848. While she was still a young child, a cruel slavemaster, in the course of beating her mother, caught Julia’s right eye with his whip and destroyed it.

Freed by Missouri’s Emancipation Act in 1865, Julia subsequently earned her keep by serving white families in Missouri, Colorado, Wyoming and New Mexico—though mostly in the Denver area. Whatever she did not need for herself, Julia spent assisting poor families in her neighborhood. When her own resources were not enough, she begged for food, fuel and clothing for the needy. One writer later called her a “one-person St. Vincent de Paul Society.” To avoid embarrassing the people she helped, Julia did most of her charitable work under cover of night through dark alleys.

Julia entered the Catholic Church at Sacred Heart Parish in Denver in 1880, and was an outstanding supporter of all that the parish had to offer. The Jesuits who ran the parish considered her the most enthusiastic promoter of devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus they had ever seen. Every month she visited on foot every fire station in Denver and delivered literature of the Sacred Heart League to the firemen, Catholics and non-Catholics alike.

A daily communicant, Julia had a rich devotion to the Blessed Sacrament and the Blessed Virgin and continued her prayers while working and moving about. She joined the Secular Franciscan Order in 1901 and was active in it till her death in 1918.

As she lived in a boarding house, Julia’s body was laid out in church, and immediately many hundreds of people began filing pass her coffin to pay their grateful respect. Julia is buried today in Denver’s Cathedral.

Here's a beautiful truth about the Catholic faith: once you truly understand the Eucharist, it becomes difficult to walk away from the Church. Not because the Church is holding on to you, but because your heart has already found the One it has been searching for.

The Eucharist is more than a doctrine to be learned or a ritual to be observed. It is a personal encounter with Jesus Christ. It is the meeting of God and man, the Divine Lover and His beloved. Every Holy Communion is an invitation to enter deeper into that relationship—a love story that continues at every Mass.

As Archbishop Fulton Sheen beautifully said, "The greatest love story of all time is contained in a tiny white Host."

Think about that for a moment. The God who created the universe chooses to humble Himself and become our food. He does not remain distant from us. He comes close. He enters our hearts. He stays with us.

If you want to experience this love for yourself, go to Holy Mass. Spend time with the Lord in the Blessed Sacrament. Receive Him worthily in Holy Communion. Allow Him to speak to your heart and transform your life.

You may discover that what you have been searching for all along is already waiting for you at the altar.
