Understanding the Eucharist

Concepts for living a Eucharistic Life

Loving Others

After hearing stories of how Jesus showed love to others, we leave Mass and try to show God’s love to everyone we meet. It is easy to show love to the people who are nice to us, but it is very hard to be nice to the people who we find hard to love. This is exactly what Jesus asks us to do!

Looking After God’s Creation

God has made so many beautiful things for us that we need to make sure we look after them. Just as God wants us to look after the people He created, He wants us to look after the animals, plants and other things that He made for us.

Caring For People Who Are In Need

Jesus taught us to care for others who have less than we do. We can do this through prayer and also through helping to raise money through Catholic initiatives such as Project Compassion.

Go And Announce The Gospel Of The Lord

At the end of each celebration of the Mass the Priest sends us out into the world to take what we have learned through the readings and prayers and live like Jesus and show God’s love to people in our daily lives.

Always Doing Your Best

Even when it was really hard, Jesus always did his best to do what he knew God wanted. He often prayed to God to give him the strength he needed to do what was right.

Helping Someone

Through his life, Jesus was always aware of people who needed his help. We too, need to always be ready to help others.

Sharing With Others

Another way of showing God’s love to others is by sharing. There were many times when Jesus shared with others.

Showing Kindness

We can show kindness to other people, especially people who others are not kind to.
