Although the United States has no Eucharistic miracle of the scale of Lanciano or Bolsena, St. Carlo Acutis's catalogue notes several lesser 19th-century North American Eucharistic phenomena — chiefly small parish-level events of host preservation during Mississippi River flooding, frontier fires, and the chaos of the American Civil War. These are recorded in local Catholic memory rather than in formal Vatican investigations, and the catalogue presents them as testaments to popular Eucharistic devotion on the American frontier rather than as canonically investigated miracles.
