The rarest reported type of Eucharistic miracle is where the Eucharist become human flesh as in the miracle of Lanciano which some Catholics believe occurred at Lanciano, Italy, in the 8 th century A.D. In fact, Lanciano is only one of the reported cases of Eucharistic miracles where the host has been transformed into human flesh. However, a Eucharistic miracle more commonly reported by Catholics is that of the Bleeding Host, where blood starts to trickle from a consecrated host, the bread consecrated during Mass. At the 2017 Synodal Mass held at Corpus Christi Anglican Church in Rogers, Rev. Fr. Jason Rice of the Holy Catholic Church Anglican Rite, a Continuing Anglican denomination, affirmed a Eucharistic miracle in which An image of a heavenly host appeared directly over the chalice immediately after the words of consecration.
