Reflection... June
6, 2010 The
Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ At
the heart of every Mass we celebrate are the elements of bread and
wine which become the Body and Blood of Christ. So rich is this
mystery that many terms are used to describe it: 3)
The Lord’s Supper because the Mass has its origin in the Last Supper
Jesus spent with His disciples before His death on the Cross through
which Christ redeems us of sin and establishes a New Covenant with all
the faithful; 5)
Holy Communion because the Mass unites us to Christ and the
“communion of the saints” through worthy reception of the Body and
Blood of Christ;
