Why Am I Catholic? The Eucharist

About this sermon

When a friend asked Jackie why she was still Catholic, she responded, “Because of the Eucharist.” Jesus did not tell us to remember him through song or great preaching—even though these can be good things to do to praise him. Giving his body and blood in the form of bread and wine to his disciples, he said, “Do this in memory of me.” Paraphrasing Pope Bendict XVI, Jackie explains how receiving the Eucharist is the most intimate form of connection one can have with God, and we can only receive the Eucharist in the Catholic Church. Jackie reads from The Great Adventure Catholic Bible, which you can purchase at ascensionpress.com If you or someone you know is about to make their First Communion, check out "Received: Your Journey to First Communion": https://ascensionpress.com/collections/renewed-and-received
