The thing that is most unique about being Catholic is our view on the Eucharist. Our faith holds that the bread and wine of our mass gathering is not just a symbol; it becomes the manifest body and blood of our Lord.
It really separates us. In fact, as I've had conversations with recent Catholic converts from other faiths of what drew them to Catholicism, the Eucharist is usually the reason that is cited.
My uncle shared this story with me, and it bears viewing here:
I do believe that God interacts with us. Sometimes, that interaction comes in a form which nurtures and buttresses the faith of His people. I'd consider this event to along those lines.
