"The Eucharist is our most beautiful treasure.
It is the Sacrament par excellence; it ushers us into
eternal life
in advance; it contains the entire mystery of our
salvation;
it is the source and summit of the action and life of the Church..."
Pope Benedict XVI
The Mass is truly
a 'hidden
treasure,'
and, alas, our cold, dead faith allows it to
remain so.
If we valued it as
we ought,
we would hurry every
morning to the church,
careless of the
snows of winter
and the heats of
summer,
in order to get a
share
of the riches of
this treasure."
