One of 101 titles in the St. Joseph Picture Book Series, this book by popular author Father Lovasik, S.V.D., teaches children the importance of Jesus’ Body and Blood. The Eucharist is one of the most important parts of being a Catholic. It’s a very special way we can be close to Jesus. At every Mass, when the bread and wine are blessed by the priest, they become the Body and Blood of Jesus. This happens because Jesus told us at the Last Supper, “This is my body... this is my blood... do this in memory of me.” The Eucharist is like food for our souls. Just like we eat food to stay strong and healthy, receiving the Eucharist helps us grow in our faith and stay close to Jesus. When we receive Him in Holy Communion, Jesus comes into our hearts and gives us His love, peace, and strength. The Eucharist also reminds us that Jesus is always with us. Even though we can’t see Him, He is truly present in the Eucharist. This is why we kneel and pray in front of the tabernacle, where the Eucharist is kept. When we receive the Eucharist, it helps us to be more like Jesus. It teaches us to love others, forgive, and share. It brings us closer to God and to everyone in our Church family. The Eucharist is Jesus’ special gift to us, a sign of His love and a way for us to stay connected with Him forever. It’s a moment of great joy and thanksgiving!
