GOSPEL  REFLECTION

In the Old Testament the privileged place of God’s presence was the Temple in Jerusalem. In the New Covenant, this was replaced by the person of Jesus. This is the symbolism of the action of Jesus in the Temple. But we are the Body of Christ. When have you been particularly aware of the sacredness of people (yourself or others).

 

EUCHARISTIC  CONGRESS

A Eucharistic Congress is an international gathering of people which aims to: promote an awareness of the central place of the Eucharist in the life and mission of the Catholic Church; help improve our understanding and celebration of the liturgy; draw attention to the social dimension of the Eucharist.

The Congress normally takes place every four years.
