Clergy Corner

Question of the Week:

During the week ahead, how will I offer myself in imitation of Jesus to nourish or sustain someone else?

Saint Paul’s description of the Eucharist in his letter to the Corinthians is remarkably

similar to one we could write today. The words are nearly the same as what we hear in each eucharistic prayer, including the memorial acclamation. When it comes to the celebration of the Eucharist, we have at least one thing in common with Paul: none of us were present at the

Last Supper. And yet, we all can describe it so very well. This is the power of ritual. Already

by when this letter was written, about twenty years or so after the death and resurrection of

Jesus, the ritual of the Eucharist was well established. Nearly two thousand years later, we still celebrate the Eucharist in a similar way and he is still present in his Body and Blood every single time.
