About my Faith

I believe that the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass is the most wondrous thing this side of Heaven. Where else can we get a glimpse of the actual life within the Blessed Trinity? Where else can we witness bread and wine transformed into the Body and Blood of Christ Himself? This can only happen during the Mass when an ordained Priest stands in “Persona Christi”(in the shoes of Christ) and says the
words of Consecration. Then, through the power of the Holy Spirit, the now Risen Christ is returned to us in Holy Communion. Where else can this happen? The answer is NOWHERE—this is where it all begins. I know it does for me.
