Summary

Together, with Fr. Mike, we explore the reality of Christ’s true presence in the Eucharist. Fr.

He explains that during the Consecration, the whole substance of bread and wine becomes the whole substance of the Body and Blood of Christ. Today’s readings are Catechism paragraphs 1373-1377.
