The Holy Eucharist

The Eucharist is one of the Sacraments of Inititation (along with baptism and confirmation). Often called 'communion,' the Eucharist is the very source of our entire lives as Catholics. We say that because the Eucharist really is the body, blood, soul, and divinity of Jesus Christ. This is not just a symbol. In the Sacrament, the very essence or substance of the bread and wine is completely changed. Because the Eucharist is Christ Himself, we say that the Eucharist is "the source and summit" of the Christian life.

For those of you who are homebound, in a nursing home or assisted living facility and are unable to come to Mass, we have a whole host of very willing volunteers who gladly make it a priority to visit YOU on Sundays! 

Please contact Mary Peacock to arrange for a Sunday Visitor to bring you or your homebound loved-one the Eucharist.  We want you to stay connected to the Eucharist, the source and summit of our Christian lives!
