Same Body broken, same Blood flowing...

 “Our way of thinking is attuned to the Eucharist, 

and the Eucharist in turn 

confirms our way of thinking.” – St Irenaeus

"The Mass is that which 

makes the cross visible to every eye; 

it placards the Cross at all the crossroads 

of civilization; it brings Calvary so close 

that even tired feet can make the journey 

to its sweet embrace; every hand may now 

reach out to touch its Sacred Burden, 
every ear may hear its sweet appeal, 
for the Mass and the Cross are the same.

In both there is the same offering of a 

perfectly surrendered will of the beloved Son, 
same Body broken, the same Blood flowed 

forth, the same Divine Forgiveness.

All that has been said and done and acted 

during Holy Mass is to be taken away with us, 
lived, practiced, and woven into all the 
circumstances and conditions of our daily lives."

Venerable Fulton J Sheen
