("With God all things are possible." Matthew 19:26)
To: All
From: 1 Corinthians 10:16-17 (RSV)
Idolatry and the Eucharist, Incompatible
[16] The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not a participation in the blood of
Christ? The bread which we break, is it not a participation in the body of Christ?
[17] Because there is one bread, we who are many are one body, for we all par-
take of the one bread.

“It is the same with us. Without receiving Jesus, our living manna from Heaven, in Holy Communion, we will not make it to our Promised Land of Heaven! I guess it’s not just a ritual after all. It is essential for our survival.”
I asked our Pastor “How are registered parish Catholics going to Heaven if only 22% (30% at our parish) attend Mass regularly?” He replied that he would address this in a future homily.
The mission of the Catholic church is to lead everyone to Heaven, perhaps we are achieving only a 20% success rate and we could do better.
