The Holy Mass

Holy Mass is a sacred re-presentation of our Lord’s Passion and Death. As the Catechism of the Catholic Church,1367, says:

The sacrifice of Christ and the sacrifice of the Eucharist are one single sacrifice: “The victim is one and the same: the same now offers through the ministry of priests, who then offered himself on the cross; only the manner of offering is different.” “And since in this divine sacrifice which is celebrated in the Mass, the same Christ who offered himself once in a bloody manner on the altar of the cross is contained and is offered in an unbloody manner… this sacrifice is truly propitiatory”.

This is how we celebrate it.
