The Eucharist

Jesus promised to be with us always — and He is here, really present with us, in the Eucharist. But the modern world has forgotten that God is still present and many have forgotten the essence of the Mass. We need to make the Eucharist the center of our lives again and to discover, or rediscover, that the one who is God offers himself as food and drink for us, so that we can be more like him.

Reflection Questions
  1. We all suffer from spiritual amnesia at times. How can you remember God and His love in your daily life? 
  2. With Masses suspended, how has your love and appreciation for the Eucharist changed? How have you found other ways to celebrate the True Presence of Christ? 
  3. In the Eucharist we discover who we are, so we can make a gift of ourselves. How are you called to make a gift of yourself?
