The celebration of the Eucharist is central to the life of a Catholic. The word "Eucharist" means "Giving Thanks". In this section of the parish website I hope to give a brief overview of the parts of the mass through word and photo. But it is important to note that the Eucharist is a gift of God to us and that it is mysterious as God is. I am reminded of the story of the Curé d'ars (Fr John Vianney) who noticed that everyday this man came to the church to pray. He spent a few hours staring at the Tabernacle. The priest noticed that the man never seem to say anything because his lips never moved. So he asked him one day what prayers did he say as he sat in the church. The man replied "I just sit there, God loving me, and I loving him".
