The Holy Eucharist
7. The Eucharist is a feast
Is it a feast or a sacrifice?
The Mass is a sacrifice: It is Christ’s Death on the Cross to expiate for our
sins. But it is a wonderful
feast because of many reasons.
We also celebrate Jesus’ Resurrection in the Mass
How can we not be
happy if Jesus has
risen?
The Eucharist is a great Christian feast
Jesus instituted the Eucharist in a
great Jewish feast: the
Passover. By this, He wants to say
that the Eucharist is a great
Christian feast, replacing the
Jewish Passover.
God talks to us
God talks to us in the readings.
Listening to Him makes us happy.
We are reunited with Jesus in the Mass
It is a joy for us to be together and to sing to God. Aside from Him, those present are the Father and the Holy
Spirit, the Virgin Mary, the angels, the saints in Heaven, the souls in Purgatory, and all creatures.
Sacrifices are not a sad thing
Sacrifices are like a gift we give to
God. It is always a gift that is done
lovingly and cheerfully. It is a
feast to give thanks, to adore, to praise God, to know that He forgives our
sins. Jesus gives Himself to us
cheerfully.
What a joy when they told me... !
That is why I hurry up in order not to arrive late. Jesus
waits for me on the altar.
I don’t care if i wake up early, if I have to stop playing...
Because the joy of participating in the Mass and receiving
Jesus is my greatest treasure. The
End
