Awesome is the altar...

  "Awesome is the altar on which the divine victim 
is immolated! From paradise there went forth a spring 
whose visible waters spread out on every side.  
From this Table, it is a spring of spiritual waters 
that gushes forth." - St John Chrysostom

...so everything will live where the river flows. - Ezekiel 47:9
 
"Everything
flows from the altar 
- everything!"

"The Body of Christ (Eucharist) will

Bishop Paul V Dudley
