About this title

From the Back Cover:

Why can’t divorced and remarried Catholics receive the Eucharist? Why doesn’t the host look, taste, or feel like bread? How come some Catholics don’t kneel during the consecration? If you’ve asked these or similar questions and are looking for reasonable, Catholic answers 50 Questions about the Eucharist is a book for you. Taking questions posed by men and women active in their faith, this is a collection of “questions from the pews.” When we go to Mass we bring all that we are and all that we’ve done and place ourselves in God’s hands. Such topics as divorce, remarriage, and reception of communion, becoming an Extraordinary Minister of Communion, and why the Mass is important are treated with reverence for people’s life situation and the Church’s tradition. 50 Questions about the Eucharist is a resource to help you understand the great sacrament of unity that is “the source and summit of Christian life (LG 11).
