The Catechetical Review - Communicating Christ for a New Evangelization

Sacerdotisas, ¿por qué no?: Una guía para los catequistas

Authored by William Newton in Issue #32.4 of The Sower

In the Form of a Sacrificial Meal: The Sacrifice of Calvary and the Sacrifice of the Mass
By Dr. Denis McNamara
For an average Catholic, even one who speaks piously of the Mass as the re-presentation of the sacrifice of Calvary, the link between Christ’s dramatic death on the Cross can seem remote from the sacred liturgy’s formal ritual.
