HOLY THURSDAY- BODY GIVEN FOR US



Hail wondrous Altar! Victim hail!
Thy Glorious Passion shall avail!
Where death Life's very Self endured,

Yet life by that same Death secured.


  





At the feet of  St. John the Baptist is a lamb bearing a cross, whose blood flows into a goblet, symbolizing the union between the Old and New Testament as well as the redemption of mankind.

Today we are given His Body and Blood from that great sacrifice so long ago.  He has become our own life blood!
