9. Catholics need to be sincerely sorry for the sins and try not to do it again.
10. Make peace with God.
11. Also with people whom we have hurt.
12. Jesus way of showing forgiveness to us
According to church law, Catholics should at least confess twice a year, but it is easier to go
once a month. By going confession, it helps you to recall what sins you have committed and
feel sorry for your wrongdoings. Going confession (Sacrament of Penance) will, most
importantly strengthen your relationship with God.
When we go for Confession

2. Ask yourself how we have offended God.
3. Be truly sorry for our sins
4. Make up our mind not to sin again
5. Tell our sins to the Priest
6. Must do the penance the priest gives us
All of us need the Sacrament of Penance because all of us are sinners.
Scripture says: If we say we have no sins, we are deceiving ourselves and refusing to admit the
truth, but if we acknowledge and confess our sins to God, then God who is faithful and just,
will forgive our sins and purify us from all our wrong doings. (1 John 1:8-9)
We cannot say there is no need to confess our sins to the priest, and that we can confess
our sins straight to God.
Jesus gave the power to forgive sins to Peter, to the Apostles and their successors, when he
said: I will give you the keys to the kingdom of heaven; whatever you bind on earth shall be
considered bound in heaven; whatever you loose on earth shall be considered loose in heaven
(Matthew 16:19)

SACRAMENT OF THE
HOLY EUCHARIST

7
Jesus, the Bread of Life
Jesus told His disciples: “I am the Bread of Life”. He was not speaking in riddles. He was saying “I am the
living bread which came down from heaven; if anyone eats of this bread, he will forever, and the bread which
I shall give for the life of the world is my flesh. He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life,
and I will raise him up on the last day” (John 6:35, 51, 54). Many people turned away from Jesus because this
teaching sounded harsh. But He spoke the truth! But the people did not know HOW Jesus would give His
Body and Blood.

At the Last Supper “The night before Jesus was to suffer and die for us). Jesus celebrated a big feast with His
apostles. As they were eating, He took bread, blessed it and broke it, and said “Take, this is my body”. And
then He took a cup and when he had given thanks, He gave it to them and they all drank from it. And He said
to them,” This is my blood of the covenant, which poured out for many (Mark 14:22-24). Jesus gave us the
Eucharist so we could eat His Body and drink His Blood, so He can live in us, and we can live forever. The
Eucharist is food for our souls!

When we receive the Eucharist, we are receiving the Same Jesus and Lord that performed miracles, that taught
the way to Eternal Life and that save us from our sins by offering His Life for us.
Jesus promised to stay with us until the end of time, and He has made this possible through the Blessed
Sacrament. In every Catholic Church, Jesus is present to us during Mass, but also He is there in the tabernacle
– a box where the Blessed Sacrament (Jesus) is kept so we can pray to Jesus and visit Him.
Just as people 2000 years ago would go to visit Jesus to listen to Him and seek healing from Him as he walked
the earth, so too we can go to Jesus in the Eucharist. This is the Most Sacred of all the Sacraments, so it is
very important to prepare with special care.

Names for the Eucharist: There are many different names for the Eucharist, and they help us to know more about this gift of Christ

Holy Communion
Communion means "union with". So, when

thanks and broke it giving it to His disciples
CCC1330 CCC1329

10
THE EUCHARIST
“Eucharist” means THANKSGIVING. We have so many things to thank God for! We can thank Him
for creation, redemption (that Jesus saved us from sin) and sanctification (that we can be made Holy)
(CCC1328). The Eucharist is the greatest gift of God can give us, for it is Jesus Christ, the Son of
God, really and mysteriously present in the species of bread and wine (CCC1357)
The Eucharist is a sacrament of thanksgiving and praise to God the Father (CCC1358). It is a sacrificial
memorial of Christ and His Body on the Cross (CCC1358). As a remembrance, the Sacrifice is made
present in a real way but in a non-bloody way (it is the same sacrifice as on the Cross but in a different
way). So every Mass, is the same one sacrifice of Jesus on the Cross (CCC1364-7) is made present in
the Eucharist. At Mass, you are present under the Cross at Calvary (CCC1363). Also, in the Eucharist,
Christ is truly present by the power of His words and His spirit (CCC1368). It is Jesus who celebrated
the Eucharist with us in and through the priest or bishop who is Christ’s minister (CCC1369).

During the Mass, the priest says a prayer called


CONSECRATION over the wheaten bread and sine
made of grapes (CCC1333). During this prayer, Jesus
becomes “substantially” present in the bread and wine.
This means that although you may see bread, taste
bread, smell bread and feel bread (and wine), it is not at
all bread and wine except by appearances or “Species”
(CCC1375). Really, it is Jesus Christ’s Body, Blood,
Soul and Divinity (CCC1347). This change is called
transubstantiation (CCC1376), which means “change of
substance”. The entire bread and wine is Jesus truly
present. And is the bread is broken, Jesus is not broken,
but is really present in each of the part (CCC1377).

When we receive Holy Communion, we receive Jesus


really and truly present, Body, Blood, Soul and
Divinity. We receive the same Jesus who offered
Himself for our sins on the Cross during the Mass,
which is really the same sacrifice (CCC1383). We share
in the eternal life of God which Jesus won for us in the
Resurrection. Jesus lives in us as nourishment for our
souls, God loves us so very much!

11
What three things must I do to prepare to receive Jesus (CCC1385)?
Because you are going to receive Jesus, you must be ready to meet the Lord! This is the most important
event of your life!!!

This means that you must not


have any mortal sins. You

future mortal sins

14
THE MASS
You must go to Mass every Sunday and every other Holy Day of Obligation. You must hear the Mass,
it is not necessary for you to receive Holy Communion, but it is good to receive Communion
frequently. You may receive Communion every day, so long as you are not in mortal sin. If you receive
Holy Communion in mortal sin, this is called a “sacrilege” and is a very serious mortal sin. You must
confess it next time you go to Confession. You are, however, obliged to receive Holy Communion
once a year during Easter time (CCC1389).
You should be familiar with the Mass already. You likely have been going with your family and school
regularly. It would be good for you to go through a Missal (a book with the parts of the Mass) with
your teacher or parents so you can follow the Mass better. Do your best to pay attention, be quiet and
listen very carefully.
Because we know Jesus is present in our church in the place called the TABERNACLE, it is proper to
show Jesus that you know He is there, and tell Him that you love Him. You can do this by genuflecting
every time you get in and out of your seat. To genuflect, you kneel on your right knee, and make the
Sign of the Cross. Have reverence, and don’t be too quick. This is a good way to greet Jesus our Lord.

15
Loving Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament
Jesus told us that He will remain with us in the Blessed Sacrament. In the Eucharist, Jesus stays
with us in all the tabernacles in the world. A tabernacle is a box (usually gold) found in every
Catholic Church (CCC1378). A the end of the Mass, the Blessed Sacrament is reserved in this sacred
place so Jesus can be given to the sick and people who are unable to attend Mass. Also, Jesus
remains in every Church, so that we may visit Him and show Him our Love.
When we enter the Catholic Church, we should genuflect to Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament
(CCC1378). To genuflect, we kneel on our right knee and make the Sign of the Cross.
We adore Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament, for Jesus for Jesus is our Lord. We venerate (love and
worship) the consecrated Hosts reserved in the tabernacle. Sometimes, we have a special ceremony
called “Adoration” when our Eucharistic Lord is placed in a Monstrance (a stand to display the
Blessed Sacrament) (CCC1378). During Adoration, prayers maybe said and sometimes ac
procession occurs – such as on the feast of Corpus Christi (the Body and Blood of Christ). Usually
at the end of adoration, the people are blessed with the Eucharist, and this is called Benediction.
Because Jesus is present all the time in the Church, it is good to visit Him there and to say some
prayers. To visitor Lord in the Eucharist is a way of thanking Jesus for this gift of Himself. It is also
an expressions of our love (CCC1418). It is our duty to worship Jesus, and this is a special way we
can!
