Re A02- Holy Communion
By Mary-Louise Duffy 10R
In the Roman Catholic religion, we believe that the Eucharist is the most important of worship and during the Eucharist in a mass, the Jesus' sacrifice is made present, but this does not mean that he is being sacrificed again, as there is only one sacrifice. After all, it was Jesus who said for us to do it again at mass. ('Do It In Memory Of Me.') Catholics also believe that during communion, the bread and wine is transformed into the body and blood of Christ. This is known as transubstantiation. So when we take the body and blood into ourselves, we have God inside us. Therefore, we will be made closer to God. In mass, as Catholics, we should remember the death and resurrection of Jesus. In the catholic church, mass is celebrated once a week, normally on a Sunday.
