QUICK LINKS
Through participation in the Eucharist, we also participate in the Paschal Mystery of Christ, that is, in his dying and rising, which is made present for us in the Eucharistic sacrifice. This participation in the Paschal Mystery of Christ reaches its consummation when we receive his Body and Blood in Holy Communion. Christ’s victory and triumph over death is then made present in the lives of those who participate in the Eucharist.
Holy Communion increases our union with Christ. “Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in me and I in him” (Jn 6:56). Communion with the Body of Christ preserves, increases, and renews the life of grace received at Baptism.

The Eucharist is the source and summit of the Christian life. The term “Eucharist” originates from the Greek word eucharistia, meaning thanksgiving.
