The Eucharistic saint par excellence was saint Tarcisio, the young acolyte commissioned by Pope Sixtus II to bring the Eucharist to Christians who was sentenced to death because of persecution; brutally killed with stones, he died clutching to his chest the Eucharist he had been taking care of with great love and which became part of his own body.
