The Eucharist in Relation to the Individual

The Eucharist in relation to the individual: The Eucharist takes us out of our narrow individualism and enlarges our existence by uniting us intimately with God our Father and with Jesus Christ our Lord, and by making us one with the other members of God’s holy people. By nourishing us with Christ’s Body and Blood, the Eucharist increases the life of grace within us, which is already the beginning of eternal life and the pledge of future glory.

Sincerely in Christ,

Rev. Jeffery A. Fasching
