The Eucharist: Extraordinary Food for Ordinary Souls

If you have not been to Mass in a while, please consider availing yourself of this great Gift at Easter, when all things are "made new." As Holy Week approaches many dioceses around the country are offering additional opportunities to go to confession before the Triduum; call your local parish and find out when confession is offered in your area. Ask the great confessor, St. Jean-Marie Vianney to pray for your intention. "I am only content," he said, "when I'm praying for sinners."

To offer our trust to Christ in that sacrament, in return for His life-giving Eucharist, is a wonderful way to begin our spring.

For more inspiration, here's a great website with quotes from saints devoted to the Eucharist.

See you at Mass. God bless you!
