Personal Reflection

 

This course about the Eucharist clearly shows the sacrifices that Jesus Christ made for humanity. Through this assignment, I have learned the significance of the Eucharist, and the effort that goes into preparing it. Somethings that I was surprised by was the ‘Real Presence’, and the fact that Christ is actually in the environment in which the Eucharist is held is both, surprising, and inspirational. I have also learned about the effort gone into preparing the Eucharist as I mentioned before, and how lots of the hardwork goes unnoticed.

To conclude, I believe and understand the significance of the Eucharist and the impact that it has on Christians. This important ritual serves as an important reminder of all the sacrifices Jesus made for us, and how we should celebrate and remember them.
