Eucharist

"At the Last Supper, on the night He was betrayed, our Savior instituted the Eucharistic sacrifice of His Body and Blood. This He did in order to perpetuate the sacrifice of the cross throughout the ages until He should come again, and so to entrust to His beloved Spouse, the Church, a memorial of His death and resurrection: a sacrament of love, a sign of unity, a bond of charity, a Paschal banquet 'in which Christ is consumed, the mind is filled with grace, and a pledge of future glory is given to us... The Eucharist is the source and summit of Christian life." -CCC 1323-1324

• Catholics, in the state of grace, have the opportunity to receive the Eucharist daily.

• The effect of the Eucharist is intimate union with Christ and spiritual nourishment. This medicine of immortality gives us strength against sin and removes our venial sin.

• Second grade Holy Spirit and School of Religion students prepare for their First Communion. For more information, contact Maureen L. at 913-492-7382.
