Our Lady of the Blessed Sacrament, according to the teaching of St Peter Julien Eymard
"If we belong to the Son, we belong to the Mother; if we adore the Son, we ought to honor the Mother: therefore we are obliged, in order to continue in the grace of our vocation and participate fully in it, to give very special honor to the Blessed Virgin under the title of Our Lady of the Most Blessed Sacrament."
"Without Mary, we shall never find Jesus, for she possesses Him in her Heart."
"We must never separate Jesus from Mary; we can go to Him only through her."
"We shall discover the perfect union of these two hearts—that of Jesus with that of Mary—so merged as to seem one heart, one life."
"All in Mary turned toward the Blessed Sacrament as toward its center and end. A current of grace and love was established between the adorable Heart of Jesus Hostia and the adorable Heart of Mary; they were two flames that burned as one."
"Our Lord owes everything to her in the order of the Incarnation, His human nature. It is by the flesh that she gave Him that He has so glorified His Father, that He has saved us, and that He continues to nourish and save the world by the Blessed Sacrament.
Mary brings us the Bread of Life. From the day of her birth we salute her as the aurora of the Eucharist, for we know that the Savior of mankind will take from her the substance of that Body and Blood which He will give us in the Adorable Sacrament of His love.
The Eucharist began at Bethlehem in Mary’s arms. It was She who brought to humanity the Bread for which it was famishing, and which alone can nourish it. She it was who took care of that Bread for us. It was she who nourished the Lamb whose life-giving Flesh we feed upon.
The Immaculate Conception is the source of all the grace that we have received… The Eternal Father and the Holy Spirit sanctified Mary in order to make her a worthy tabernacle for the Divine Word… The Immaculate Conception is the remote preparation for Holy Communion… Holy Communion should be for us the fruit of the Immaculate Conception.
Without a doubt the grace of the Immaculate Conception surpasses all the other graces conferred on Mary, even that of her Divine Maternity. Though less in dignity, it is more important before God and more important for Mary; it is, moreover, the foundation and the source of all the privileges afterwards accorded to her … [it] is the starting point of all Mary’s virtues."

"Oh Mary! Teach us the life of adoration! Teach us to see, as thou didst, all the mysteries and all the graces in the Eucharist; to live over again the Gospel story and to read it in the light of the Eucharistic of life of Jesus. Remember, Oh our Lady of the Most Blessed Sacrament, that thou art the Mother of all adorers of the Holy Eucharist."
"I hope to become a true servant of the Most Blessed Sacrament! My God, behold Thy humble servant! May it be done to me according to Thy merciful goodness and Thy most wondrous love!
Our Lady of the Most Blessed Sacrament, Mother and Model of Adorers, pray for us who have recourse to thee."
Novena Prayer to Our Lady of the Blessed Sacrament
O Virgin Immaculate, Mother of Jesus and our tender Mother, we invoke thee under the title of our Lady of the Most Blessed Sacrament, because thou art the Mother of the Savior who lives in the Eucharist, and because it was from thee that He took the Flesh and Blood with which He there feeds us! We invoke thee under that title because, again, thou art the sovereign dispensatrix of all graces and, consequently, of those contained in the august Eucharist, also, because thou didst first fulfill the duties of the Eucharistic life, teaching us by example how to assist properly at the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, how to communicate worthily, and how to visit frequently and piously the Most Blessed Sacrament. Pray for us, O Virgin Immaculate, our Lady of the Most Blessed Sacrament.
