Taking the Teaching Mass Into the Depths

, ,

Starting Tuesday, November 12, 6:30 - 8:00 PM | Dining Room, Church and Commons

Session 1 | O Sacred Banquet: Eucharistic Theology in Four Parts

6:30 PM Talk by Father Nick Vance
7:15 PM Small Group
7:30 PM Holy Half Hour

Join Us for the Kickoff of the Into the Depths Speaker Series! Fr. Nick Vance will dive deep into the profound mystery of the Eucharist with a captivating presentation inspired by the liturgy for Corpus Christ written by St. Thomas Aquinas. This one verse from the Alleluia will be the foundation of the 4-part talk:

“O sacred banquet! in which Christ is received, the memory of his Passion is renewed, the mind is filled with grace, and a pledge of future glory to us is given.”

In this session, we will explore the theological richness of the Eucharist in four parts:

  • Christ is Truly Received: Uncover the doctrine of transubstantiation and what it means for us.

  • Memorial of Christ’s Passion: Experience how this sacred meal brings Christ’s sacrifice into the present moment.

  • Filled with Grace: Discover the transformative power of the Eucharist in our lives.

  • Anticipation of Future Glory: Reflect on our hope for complete union with God in Heaven.

Each segment will be a thoughtful 10-minute exploration, complete with a handout outlining major points and key quotations to enhance your understanding. Don’t miss this opportunity to deepen your faith and knowledge: reserve your spot today! We can’t wait to see you there! If you have questions, please contact Jessica.

Teaching Mass: Walk through the Mass Step-By-Step with Father Kevin

, ,

Tuesday, October 1, 6:15 - 7:45 PM in the Church and Commons

The Walk through the Mass Step-By-Step with Fr. Kevin and Fr. Nick is a great place to learn more about the why behind what we do!

Come and discover the deeper meaning of the items we use and the gestures we do! 

Have you ever wondered why we cross our forehead, lips, and chest at the Gospel?  Have you ever wondered what Father says to himself sometimes during the Mass?   Have you ever wondered when exactly does Jesus become present on the altar?

Join us for A Walk through the Mass Step-by-Step with Father Kevin and Father Nick. You’ll receive a worship aide with additional fun facts, scripture references, and deeper insights into the prayers. The Teaching Mass will be a great way to kick off this year’s theme, Remain in Me and Bear Much Fruit. By learning about what we do at Mass and why we do it, we will come to a greater understanding of this great prayer the Lord has given us. What we come to know, we are more likely to love, and what we love, we desire to share.

If you have questions, please contact Jessica.
