'''Eucharistic [[miracle]]s''' refer to those carefully documented miraculous occurrences connected with the [[Eucharist]] that took place throughout the ages of Christianity in various countries of the world. They are officially recognized by the [[Catholic Church]] as evidences of the [[real presence]] of Christ Jesus [[Substance|substantially present]], body, blood, soul and divinity, under the forms of bread and wine.
Catholic doctrine does not require belief in Eucharistic miracles outside of the public revelation of the Bible and the accounts of the doctrine of the Eucharist to be found in explicit passages of the [[New Testament]] of the [[Bible]].<ref>[[Catechism of the Catholic Church]] (CCC) paragraphs 66, 67 and 73.</ref>
A recent exhibit, with simultaneous publication of a book and a video presentation, offers the evidence and record of these occurrences in 152 countries around the world. Many persons over the Christian centuries have been persuaded by these and other documented miracles as cited by apologists to convert from [[paganism]] and [[Agnosticism]] and [[Atheist|Atheism]] to [[faith]] in Christianity and Catholicism.
Eucharistic miracles have been denounced by Christian [[Fundamentalism|fundamentalists]] and many fervent [[Evangelical Christians|Evangelicals]] as hoaxes and lying signs and wonders of the Devil designed to lead gullible souls astray.<ref>They cite as warnings in the Bible 2 Thessalonians 2:9-12 and 1 Timothy 4:1-7.</ref>
