October 31, 2021: Christ‘s Presence in His Congregation

The Lord Jesus Christ teaches about the importance of being in a right relationships with God and with one another. A scholar of the law asked Jesus about He considered to be the greatest commandment. What is the purpose for living according to them? The Lord replied that we must love God wholeheartedly, which is the context for loving ourselves and others appropriately. During the Archdiocese of Baltimore Year of the Eucharist observance, we are considering the four ways in which Christ is present during Holy Mass. On the Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ, our focus was on the presence of Christ in the Most Holy Eucharist. On this Lord’s Day, our focus is the presence of Christ in the gathering of His people to worship the Lord during Holy Mass. Then we bear witness to the Lord afterwards.
