Welcome to the online session of our very first First Eucharist class! Today we are talking about where the Eucharist comes from in the Bible, how it is celebrated at Mass, what the Eucharist means, and how we should act/what we should do when we receive the Eucharist.
Our Opening Prayer can be found in your packets:
My Lord, Jesus Christ,
It is your great love for us that keeps you, day and night, present in the Blessed Sacrament,
Full of compassion and love, waiting for us to visit you.
I believe that you are really present in the Sacrament of the Eucharist.
From the depth of my heart, I adore you, and I thank you for the many graces you have given me,
Especially for the gift of yourself in this Sacrament,
For the gift of your most holy Mother as my Mother,
And for the privilege of visiting you in the church at this time.
Amen.
