Eucharist is a weekly part of my life

Eucharist in which sense? The Real Presence or a memorial meal. Only a validly ordained priest may confect the Eucharist. Do you also have the Sacrament of Reconciliation? Only a validly ordained priest may forgive sins.

Only the Holy Spirit can "confect" the Eucharist. Only a validly ordained priest may forgive sins.

Only Jesus can forgive sins.

Only Jesus can forgive sins. Nobody else has that power, not even a good Priest. Good grief.

Sorry, priest cannot forgive sin. If you think they can please produce a scripture that says so. Only God can forgive sin. This is just one more error taught by the RCC.
