When was the last time you sat down to enjoy a meal with your family or close friends? Not just to eat food in close proximity to each other, but to bask in each other’s presence and grow in love for one another? This is the kind of meal God has prepared for us and invites us to participate in through the Sacrament of the Eucharist. Food is one of our most basic needs, we can’t live without it! As indispensable as food is to our physical life, the Eucharist is even more vital to our spiritual life. It sustains and strengthens us for our life’s journey. If you are longing for a better understanding and love for our Lord in the Eucharist or if your child is receiving communion this year and you would like to be better informed to help them understand this mysterious gift, I highly encourage you to sign up for this fall’s study group. Come meet and enjoy the company of other adults who desire the same strengthening of faith.
“The Mystery of the Eucharist” is an 8-week study beginning on September 19, Monday evenings from 7-8:45pm. Please contact Jeanne at [email protected] to register and for any questions about the study.
