Why the Eucharist Is Essential for Salvation | Holy Thursday Homily

About this sermon

On this Great and Holy Thursday, we are mystically led into the Upper Room where Christ reveals the deepest mystery of His love: the Holy Eucharist. This powerful homily explores: The institution of the Eucharist The connection between the Last Supper and the Cross The necessity of the Eucharist for salvation The priesthood and apostolic succession The danger of receiving unworthily The call to humility, repentance, and transformation The Eucharist is not a symbol. It is not merely a remembrance. It is the true Body and Blood of Jesus Christ, given for the life of the world. “Take, eat… This is My Body.” As we enter into the mystery of Holy Thursday, we are invited not only to receive Christ—but to become like Him in self-giving love. 🙏 Stay with Christ in His agony.
