The Mass is the Center of Our Faith Life

Why is the Mass so central to the faith life of Catholics? Well, it's because of what happens in the celebration of every Mass. We are redeemed from sin and made participants in the life of God through the suffering, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

The ritual of the Mass is our gateway into the action of Jesus' death on the Cross.In the celebration of the Mass, we are there, as it were, living the drama and mystery of the Crucifixion of Christ. His death saves us for life eternal with God our Father.. The Mass ushers us mystically and sacramentally to the very foot of the Cross! This is why we Catholics value the Mass so highly.

As a community of faith, the Mass unites us around the Cross of our Redeemer, Jesus Christ the Lord. Consuming the Body and Blood of Christ in Holy Communion makes us one body in our one Lord, Jesus Christ. Find your unity in community. Find God in Jesus Christ. Find Jesus Christ in the Mass.
