On                                  April 25, 1356,  at  Macerata, a priest whose name                                  is not  known was celebrating Mass in the chapel                                   of the Church of St. Catherine, owned by the Benedictine                                   monks. During the breaking of the bread, before  Communion, the priest began to doubt the Real                                   Presence of Jesus in the consecrated Host. Precisely                                   in the moment in which he broke the Host, to his                                   great surprise, he saw flow from the Host  an abundance                                  of Blood which marked  part of the cloth and the                                  chalice place  on the altar. At Macerata in the                                   church of the Cathedral of Holy Mary Assumed and                                   St. Giuliano, under the altar of the Most Holy                                   Sacrament, it is possible to venerate the relic                                   of the “corporal marked by blood.”                                   Also preserved in this church is the parchment                                   on which the miracle is described.  Furthermore,                                  the historian Ferdinando  Ughelli cited this miracle                                  in his work  Sacred Italy of 1647 and describes                                  how  since the 14th century “the corporal                                   has been carried in solemn procession through                                   the city, enclosed in an urn of crystal and silver,                                   with the concourse of all Piceno.”
