Readers’ Reflections on the Eucharist
What does the Eucharist mean to you?
—from online submissions (Selected reflections were published in an article in St. Anthony Messenger magazine.)
Thanksgiving
The Eucharist means 'thanksgiving.' Each time the Eucharist is celebrated, we are giving thanks to God who offered himself as a sacrificial lamb for us. By partaking in this sacrifice and receiving the body and blood of Jesus Christ, we enter into communion with the Triune God and with one another.

Source of Strength
Eucharist means a lot to me. It is a bread of life. The only source of strength especially to the weak. And above all, Our Jesus Christ is the Eucharist.
