That They All May Be One – A Pastoral Letter on the Eucharist as the Sacrament of Unity

Archbishop August Hagemann of Cincinnati released a pastoral letter titled "That They All May Be One" to share his reflections on the Eucharist as a sacrament of unity. The letter encourages the faithful in the archdiocese to experience deeper communion with God and one another through the grace of the risen Christ during liturgical celebrations.

Hagemann explains that his role as bishop includes acting as a point of unity within the local Church and maintaining communion with other bishops and the Pope. He states that the letter serves as an effort to promote greater unity in the archdiocese by calling people to be more faithful to Jesus Christ and to Catholic life. The archbishop notes that the Eucharist helps the community grow as brothers and sisters in Christ, specifically through the liturgical prayer of the Mass.
