Después de comulgar, no podemos seguir siendo iguales
Hablar del Cuerpo y la Sangre de Cristo es hablar de la Eucaristía. Al recibir el Cuerpo y la Sangre de Cristo nos unimos al mismo Cristo y a su vida de entrega generosa. La Eucaristía nos une en la unidad de la Iglesia porque, todos recibimos el mismo pan. Dice el Concilio Vaticano II: “La unidad de los fieles que constituyen un solo cuerpo en Cristo, está representada y se realiza por el sacramento del pan eucarístico” (Lumen Gentium 3). Y el Santo Papa San Juan Pablo II dijo: “Una espiritualidad verdaderamente eucarística es siempre una espiritualidad de la comunión” (Novo Milenio Ineunte 43). Toda la comunidad de creyentes reunida en la Asamblea Litúrgica comulga el mismo Pan. “Durante la comida Jesús tomó pan, y después de pronunciar la bendición, lo partió y se lo dio diciendo. “Tomen, esto es mi cuerpo. Tomó luego una copa, y después de dar gracias, se la entregó; y todos bebieron de ella” (Marcos 14:22-23). Al recibir la Santa Comunión, estamos llamados a convertirnos en pan para los demás. Somos otro Cristo para el que sufre. Por esa razón, la Eucaristía forma a la Iglesia y la hace santa. Cada vez que recibimos la Santa Eucaristía, debemos de abrirnos a servir a los hermanos y hermanas, especialmente los que sufren y los necesitados. Después de comulgar, no podemos seguir siendo iguales. El Beato Carlo Acutis, llamado el ciber apóstol de la Eucaristía, decía convencido: “La Eucaristía es mi autopista hacia el cielo”. Vivir en Jesús, para Jesús. ¡Es decir, ser Eucaristía! ©LPi

We Can Prepare the Upper Room
We all know that person, don’t we? Hey, maybe we’ve even been that person. “I have a great relationship with God, but I don’t go to church regularly. God and I are on good terms. I can talk to Him just fine on my own.” There isn’t anything false in these statements. It’s important to have an intimate, even conversational prayer relationship with God. But the problem with this attitude is that it implies that churches don’t matter. Community worship doesn’t matter. Today, we are reminded exactly why that is so untrue. Why we need our parishes, our priests, and each other. The Body and Blood of Christ — that’s what it’s all about. If it’s not about that, it’s not about anything. If we don’t have the Eucharist, we’re just like the ancient priests, making sacrifices that don’t have the power to redeem anybody. Where do we receive the Body and Blood of Christ? For most of us, it’s in our parishes. The altar of sacrifice is also the table we gather in front of, as a family, to become one with Christ in the truest and realest way possible, recreating the scene in the Upper Room over and over again every time Mass is celebrated. The disciples were commissioned by Christ to prepare the Upper Room for the Last Supper. How can we take up that work ourselves? How can we strengthen the bonds in our spiritual family? How can we serve our parish, always remembering that the table is not meant to be set only for two? — Tracy Earl Welliver, MTS ©LPi
