"In a Benedictine monastery in Andechs, Germany, there is a relic of the miracle that took place in Rome in 595, during a Holy Mass celebrated by St. Gregory the Great. At the moment of receiving Holy Communion, a Roman noblewoman began to laugh because she was assailed by doubts about the truth of Christ's real presence in the consecrated bread and wine. The Pope then decided not to give her Communion, and immediately the bread and wine were transformed into the Body and Blood of Christ."
