Kansas City Archbishop Joseph F. Naumann recently filed a lawsuit against a satanic group for allegedly stealing a Holy Eucharist to use in a “black mass” – a claim that the group denied under oath.

The Catholic Church regards a consecrated Eucharist as the body, blood, soul, and divinity of Jesus Christ while retaining the appearance of bread and wine – a theological concept known as transubstantiation. Earlier this month, the archbishop “filed a petition to recover the Eucharist—under state laws governing the return of wrongfully taken or held personal property—in the civil division of the District Court of Leavenworth County, Kansas,” per the Catholic Register.
