I’m thinking particularly of Catholic teaching most clearly articulated by Pius XII, but I have little doubt that we are united in belief with our Orthodox brothers on this point.

I was under the impression that Catholic theology is that Jesus is re-sacrificed in Heaven every time the Mass happens. But maybe I was misinformed? Sometimes it’s difficult to get clear answers, even with a Catholic catechism available to refer to.

If you mean that the Eucharist is participating in Jesus’s one-time sacrifice, and that Jesus’ body and blood are really present, then Catholics have that much in common with Lutherans too.
