Living Eucharistic Lives

Join us on March 6 and 7, 2023 from 6:30pm to 7:30pm in one of the CCD Classrooms in Edcouch as we "break open" the Mass to explore how the celebration of the Eucharist connects to our daily life and how it transforms us into the Body of Christ. As the Body of Christ, what are we called to be, how are we called to act, and what are we sent to do? As Pope Leo the Great wrote, and Pope Francis quotes often, "Our participation in the Body and Blood of Christ has no other end than to make us become that which we eat." The presenter will be Sister Leota Roesch from San Antonio, TX. The two classes will be offered in English.
