The Eucharist – A Bible Study Guide for Catholics
by Father Mitch Pacwa, SJ
The Eucharist A Bible Study Guide for Catholics by Father Mitch Pacwa, SJ, would be perfect for individual or group study. Father Mitch Pacwa teaches using Old and New Testament readings and draws essential connections between the Eucharist and the Scriptures. Thought-provoking questions are offered for reflection. An excerpt from page 107, “Christ, God the Son possesses true eternity, and He is an infinite offering. The blood of bulls and goats coagulates and dries up eventually, but the blood of Jesus Christ is truly eternal and infinite, always fresh because He was raised from the dead. Thomas and the other apostles could touch the wounds in HIs Hands, Feet, and Side because they were also glorified and remain forever. These wounds are perpetually available for the remission of our sins. This is what we celebrate in the Mass.” “Christ makes His self-offering present to us in such a way that until the end of time, we can “take and eat” and “take and drink ” His saving Body and Blood so that they, too, might have the eternal life He promised.” What does it mean to you to ” eat HIs Body and drink His Blood”?
