The real presence of Christ in the Eucharist — more than a symbol

20th Sunday in ordinary time, August 15, 2010
Fr. John Granato, S.M.
Gospel: Luke 1:39-56 “Blessed is the fruit of your womb.”
Audio MP3
10 min.

Summary: (This homily was taken from a previous year.) A child is a reminder of one’s spouse, and the love that exists between the spouses. The Eucharist is not a symbol. Jesus really meant it when He said “Eat my body, drink my blood.” The original Greek says to gnaw and chew on the body. Jesus says, “I am here to transform you so you won’t be attached to a life of sin.”
