- What have we learned about the Catholic Church through understanding more about Eucharist?
- What did you know after viewing the DVD that you didn’t know before?
- How do you see Eucharist operating in the lives of a religious community like the Redemptorists?
3. Option for Take-Home Assignment
1. Via the Internet find more facts about:
- The 2007 Eucharistic Congress
- One papal document on Eucharist
- What the Catholic Catechism says about Eucharist
- The Redemptorist community
2. Write one page of personal reflection on how Eucharist can help you live your everyday life or how you see it operating in the
