Cristeros Daily Reflections

Thursday in the Third Week of Easter


Listen Later

We pray through Easter with Saint Irenaeus and face a blunt question: if Christ does not save our flesh, what did the Cross actually redeem? We connect the Eucharist to the real human body, the promise of resurrection, and Jesus’ claim to be the Bread of Life. 
• opening prayers and a full-day offering through the Immaculate Heart of Mary 
• Saint Irenaeus on the Incarnation as real flesh and real blood 
• the Eucharist as true participation in Christ’s body and blood 
• creation’s gifts of wheat and vine becoming Eucharistic nourishment 
• Saint Paul on being members of Christ’s flesh and bones 
• burial, decay, and resurrection as the pattern of hope 
• John 6 and the promise of the Bread of Life
