- THE CATHOLIC CHURCH and THE EUCHARIST - Notably, the sacrifice of the Holy Mass is the commemoration of the Last Supper; At the sacrifice of the Holy Mass, Jesus Christ is really present on the altar under the appearances or sacrament veil of Bread and Wine; and they are being offered to God for the living and the dead. Among all other Christian denominations, it is only the Catholic Church that establishes the fact that in the sacrifice of the Holy Mass, the bread and wine are truly changed to the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ being made so with the words of consecration (Transubstantiation) pronounced by an ordained priest of God, with the power of God to whom nothing is impossible or difficult. To receive the Body of Christ worthily, it is required that we be in the state of grace (i.e., to be free from mortal sins and be pleasing to God.) otherwise, it is a great sin to receive the Body of Christ in mortal sins. For the book of 1 Cor. (11:22-30) says … for whoever eats or drinks in an unworthy manner will be guilty of profaning the Body and Blood of the Lord:…..for any one who eats and drinks without discerning the body, eats and drinks judgment upon himself. #PRAYER May the consumption of the Body and Blood of Christ brings us more Blessings and Grace other than judgement, Amen. #CorpusChristi #BodyAndBloodOfChrist #Worthily_Being_In_State_Of_Grace Laity....Foundation of Faith!!!

HAPPY SEVENTH SUNDAY OF EASTER! This is an important Sunday as it is the last Sunday before Pentecost in the Easter Season. Today's Gospel, John 17:20-26 Lifting up his eyes to heaven, Jesus prayed saying: “Holy Father, I pray not only for them, but also for those who will believe in me through their word, so that they may all be one, as you, Father, are in me and I in you, that they also may be in us, that the world may believe that you sent me. And I have given them the glory you gave me, so that they may be one, as we are one, I in them and you in me, that they may be brought to perfection as one, that the world may know that you sent me, and that you loved them even as you loved me. Father, they are your gift to me. I wish that where I am they also may be with me, that they may see my glory that you gave me, because you loved me before the foundation of the world. Righteous Father, the world also does not know you, but I know you, and they know that you sent me. I made known to them your name and I will make it known, that the love with which you loved me may be in them and I in them.” #Anticipate #Pentecost #ComeHolySpirit #AwkaDiocesanCatholicLaity
