Wednesday in the Fifth Week of Lent

We pray through a Lenten reflection on Holy Communion and what it really means to become one with God. We explore how the Eucharist restores communion with the Church, with ourselves and with creation, then ask how we can receive with greater devotion rather than routine.• communion defined as being made one • union with the Trinity through the Eucharist • Saint Augustine on being changed into Christ • communion with Christ’s passion and glory • the Eucharist as a pledge of future glory • union with the Church and the communion of saints • the Eucharist strengthening service to neighbour • deeper integration of heart, mind, soul and body • creation elevated through bread and wine made sacred • the Fall as rupture and the Eucharist as reversal • questions for examining piety, attention and devotion If you found this time of prayer and reflection fruitful and would like more opportunities to grow in your faith in this land, consider joining the Cristeros and purchasing our Lenten Reflection booklet now available on Amazon.com.
