About this listen
  1. The Son of God offered a sacrifice at the Last Supper, be cause He gave His body and blood to be offered up, in order to reconcile His heavenly Father with man.
  2. The apostles had, and their successors have, the power of peering the same sacrifice, for the Son of God at once commanded and empowered them to do so, when He said: "Do this for a commemoration of Me" (Council of Trent, 22, 1).
  3. This sacrifice was foretold in the Old Testament both by types and prophecies.
  4. This sacrifice was offered by the apostles, and it has since been offered by their successors, the bishops and priests of the Church.
  5. We call the sacrifice instituted by Our Lord at the Last Supper holy Mass, or the sacrifice of the Mass.
  6. The sacrifice of the Mass is the chief and central act of Catholic worship.
  7. The sacrifice of the Mass is a catholic sacrifice in the true sense of the word,, for it is and will be offered unceasingly throughout the whole earth until the end of time.
  8. What takes place in the sacrifice of the Mass is this: The priest at the altar, as the representative of Christ, offers up bread and wine to almighty God; he changes these substances into the body and blood of Christ, and destroys them by consuming them.
  9. There are three distinct parts in the sacrifice of the Mass: the offertory, the consecration, and the communion.
  10. What takes place at the offertory is this : Bread and wine are offered to God and blessed.
  11. What takes place at the consecration is this: The bread is changed into the body, and the wine into the blood of Christ; and they are then elevated in the sight of the people.
  12. What takes place at the communion is this: The priest receives the body and blood of Christ, and oftentimes adminis ters the body of Christ to the faithful.
