On the night before His death,
His betrayer already at work, our
Lord lifted a simple chalice in a
world covered in darkness.
Elevating it, He sealed for eternity
a new covenant between God and
man, imparting to us the gift
of His Body and Blood.
Holy Thursday was more
than Christ’s last meal with
His disciples . . .
It was the night of nights
which changed the world.
Now, rescued from obscurity,
is this remarkably penetrating
reflection on Holy Thursday
by Nobel prize winner
Francois Mauriac.
As you read these stirring
pages, you’ll rejoice again in
the fact that Christ has not
left us orphans.
You’ll come to see more fully
that He is with us at all times
In the Eucharist.
You’ll learn how — and what
it means — to achieve true
peace in Christ.
