Sunday Mass Prep

Learn about the Sacrament of the Eucharist and the Mass of the Holy Catholic Church.

Jesus Christ, the Lord and Savior of Man, died so that every Catholic man might be able to receive the life-saving blessing of the Eucharist. The Eucharist is the source and summit of our faith through which you are able to receive the actual Body and Blood of Jesus and be drawn into intimate union with Him.

Receiving Jesus Christ in the Sacrament of the Eucharist in the Holy Mass

To receive the fullness of the miraculous graces from the Mass, it can help men to understand the stages of the Mass and how blessings are bestowed to men at each stage. In the Mass, men leave the battlefield of the Spiritual Combat, meet their King on Holy Ground in His fortress and are healed and fed, returning then again to the life-long Spiritual Combat as they battle in their pilgrimage towards Heaven

Receiving the Sacrament of Penance

To best prepare to receive Jesus Christ in the Eucharist, always be in a state of Grace by receiving the astounding mercy and forgiveness of Jesus in the soul-cleansing Sacrament of Peace.
