Eucharistic Holiness in the Family
"Living as Missonary Disciples" -- in the home
In the Mass, we receive the infinite love of Christ's Paschal Mystery, his passage from death to new life, so that we can become this infinite love for the world. ...The entire life of the family, its joys and sorrows, is a participation in this Eucharistic mystery of self-giving love. (USCCB)
The Vocation of the Family...
is to transform every element of their lives together into a Eucharistic offering to God.
Bond Between Marriage and the Eucharist
...The food of the Eucharist offers the spouses the strength and incentive needed to live the marriage covenant each day as a 'domestic church. Pope Francis, Amoris Laetitia #318
