“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
