    Mass means that you go to church and learn about God and pray for people that you love or don't even know that need help. Like when someone is lost or they have a disease. I really like that part when you go up to the front of the church and revive the communion host. I learned that this women was unhappy with her marriage. #13

    1.Mass means going to church to pray with people that share the same beliefs.
    2. My favorite part of mass is receiving communion because it helps solidify my beliefs.
    3. The Eucharistic miracle I learned about was the miracle of Alatri. In the miracle a young woman wanted to regain her sweethearts love, and decided to hide a Host in a cloth and give it to him. But when the woman got home the Host was turned into bleeding flesh.

    Mass means to me that you pray for people that need help with things and it brings me closer to God. I like the readings because I learn more about the bible. The Eucharist Miracle I learned about is The Statue with the Secret Heart. It is about the statue that cried in Rosano Italy. It was removed to a secret location November 14th in 1950. It was brought back in 1952. #12

    The mass to me means that I'm able to show God that I am grateful and am able to show my love for him. The gospel reading also helps me learn to get over a struggle as Father explains in his sermon. But my favorite part of the mass is recieving the Eucharist because of the close bond that is created with Jesus as I recieve his flesh and blood. The greatest example would come from the Eucharistic Miracle of Lacino, Italy. One day a monk was questioning the exsistence of God. The during the blessing he was putting over the communion, it suddenly turned into human flesh and the wine into blood that turned into five disks. They were believed to be part of Jesus's blood and body. Then an antomy scientist confirmesd that they were human. Thus confirming the fact that Jesus's body and blood are in the Eucharist. #27
