Jesus took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it and gave it to his disciples, saying, “Take and eat; this is my body.”​
Matthew 26:26

The Mass

The Eucharist is “the source and summit of the Christian life.” CCC 1324 It is the high point of our lives as Catholics. Jesus did not want to leave us without his life so he gave us the Sacraments to bring his life to us. The Eucharist is Jesus’ very body, blood, soul and divinity. By consuming the Eucharist we receive Jesus’ very life and are made partakers in his life. “Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him on the last day. For my flesh is true food, and my blood is true drink … He who eats me will live because of me.” John 6: 53-54, 57. What a wonderful reality.
