“Just as the living Father sent me, and I live because of the Father, so whoever eats me will live because of me.” (John6:57)

Jesus uses the word “abide” as he invites us to be connected to him. The eating of bread(his flesh) and drinking of wine(his blood) are means of that connection. Participating in the Sacrament of Holy Communion connects us with Christ and the body of Christ in a unique way – to other Christians. Take a moment to reflect about being part of the body of Christ in your life.
