Invitation par excellence

  You prepare a table before me

in the presence of my enemies... - Psalm 23: 5a

  

 

"Consider at whose table thou eatest!

For we are fed with that which

the angels view with trepidation and

which they cannot contemplate without fear

because of Its splendor.

We become one with Him:

we become one Body

and one Flesh with Christ."
