"These insightful reflections will guide the faithful into a deeper encounter with the Lord Jesus in the mass. The Lord longs for disciples who will offer themselves on the altar and then become walking tabernacles in their daily lives—Eucharistic missionaries sent to share his love throughout the world."
—Bishop Andrew H. Cozzens, bishop of Crookston, Minnesota, founding chairman of the Board of the National Eucharistic Congress
"Marco Benini has invited us on a journey that should make our hearts burn with the desire to become what we receive at Eucharist, to be fed by word and sacrament, and to draw closer to the Lord Jesus, whose desire for us is more than we could ask for or imagine. This book covers history, theology, spirituality, and the ritual life that together make the richness of the sacramental life both secure in the tradition and open to the renewed depths this present age of worshipers brings."
—Paul Janowiak SJ, Santa Clara University
"With a heartfelt and accessible approach, Fr. Marco Benini invites the faithful to know Jesus more fully in the breaking of the bread, and to feel their hearts burning within them. With reflection on scripture, tradition, and our liturgical rites, this lovely volume invites us anew to participate in—and to be—the living presence of Christ Jesus!"
—Katharine E. Harmon, PhD, Saint John's School of Theology and Seminary, Collegeville, Minnesota
