Resources for Holy Mass


“The Savior instituted the most holy Sacrament of the Eucharist, really containing his Body and his Blood, in order that they who eat it might live forever. And therefore whosoever receives it frequently and devoutly, so strengthens the health and life of his soul, that it is hardly possible for him to be poisoned by any evil desires. We cannot be fed by that living flesh and hold to the affections of death; and just as our first parents could not die in paradise, because of the tree of life that God had placed therein, so this Sacrament of Life makes spiritual death impossible.”

(Introduction to the Devout Life, St Francis de Sales)
