Encountering Christ in the Eucharist

The beauty and power of the Eucharist resides in the multiple ways Christ is present in the celebration of the Mass. We will explore the encounter with the Lord in the assembled people, presiding celebrant, proclaimed word, and shared sacrament as the source and summit of the entire Christian life as worship of God (Romans 12:1-2).
