On Holy Thursday we recall what happed during the Last supper:
The Lord Jesus, on the night he was betrayed, took bread, 24 and when he had given thanks, he broke it and said, “This is my body, which is for you; do this in remembrance of me.” 25 In the same way, after supper he took the cup, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood; do this, whenever you drink it, in remembrance of me.” 26 For whenever you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until he comes. (1 Cor 11:23-26)
Key quotes from our Holy Thursday meditation on the Holy Eucharist
QUOTE: The institution of the Eucharist appeared then as the answer of Jesus to the treachery of men, as the greatest gift of His infinite love in return for the blackest ingratitude.
QUOTE: “O You who are mad about Your creature!” exclaimed St. Catherine of Siena, “ true God and true Man, You have left Yourself wholly to us, as food, so that we will not fall through weariness during our pilgrimage in this life, but will be fortified by You, celestial Nourishment! ”
QUOTE: Jesus revealed to us the perfection of fraternal charity on the same evening that He instituted the Eucharist, as if to indicate that such perfection should be both the fruit of the Sacrament of the Eucharist and our response to this great gift.

    The more we receive Jesus in His Body and Blood, the more we become like HIM and He IS LOVE! Try to go to daily Mass whenever possible before it is taken away from us by the Godless! But if you cannot, Jesus knows your desire and so will honor it if you ask Him to allow you to receive Him spiritually and ask that you will receive the Sanctifying Grace as much as possible from this Spiritual Communion. We can also offer up our Eucharist and Spiritual Communions for loved ones, those in need of conversion or even our enemies which is wonderful! Our Lord is so generous and is never outdone in LOVE! Happy Holy Maundy Thursday!

    Ken, your videos keep getting better and better as we approach Easter. Your LOVE for Jesus is shown in your peaceful, joyful countenance and your words! My desire and hunger to love and serve has grown with going to daily Mass and receiving Our Lord as often as possible. We receive help in serving those most difficult by asking Mom for the Grace and picturing Jesus as that person. It’s hard at 1st to picture Jesus in a difficult person, but essentially you ARE serving JESUS not the person when you serve. Love is SERVICE and ACTION. Love is a decision and desire to want to love.. So if you desire to serve Jesus with love, you WILL naturally serve others. Jesus served all especially the difficult (Judas, Peter, hard sinners who repented….) Have a blessed Tridium and Easter.

    "Let the people eat you up" to become what you have received (Jesus, in the Eucharist). This is beautiful! We cannot become Jesus if we are living in sin,we must live in the state of Grace.

    He knew and he still loved! He knew and he still served. My heart swells when I think of the betrayal and how he knew. Even if I were the only one on earth, he would have done all this for me! What a privilege it is for us- that we can be nourished ( body and soul) by Jesus Christ!

    Wow!! "Let the people eat you up". I will keep this quote in mind. I receive our Lord in the Eucharist most always 6 days a week in the past 8 years. I know He has made a difference in my life. My prayer life, my love for others, and my willingness to serve others has grown. I'm asking Him to help me in the area of loving and serving those who are the most difficult to deal with. I have to continue to look at them with the eyes of Jesus, and to love them with the love I receive into my body each morning. Let them eat me up. 🙏🤲🙏💝 May your family have a most blessed Triduum🙏💖

    This is my experience as well with daily Mass and the Eucharist as often as possible. We receive help in serving those most difficult by asking Mom for the Grace which I’m sure you do, and picturing Jesus as that person.

I've never thought about what Jesus thought when he washed His disciples feet before. 😢❤ that was most powerful to me. Thank you Ken. May you have a Holy Thursda. I'm praying for you, Janelle and your children. I hope Maria is all better now. 😊

    Thank you! I have never thought of it as allowing others to eat me up. Surrendering to the messiness of being chewed and swallowed and digested, to be burned by stomach acid and then distributed through the system as miniscule pieces going ever which way.
