The Eucharist is celebrated within the context of the Mass. In the celebration of the Mass, during the Eucharistic Prayer, Christ becomes present, body and blood, soul and divinity, under the forms of bread and wine. At consecration Christ's saving action, His passion, death, and resurrection are once again enacted and offered, so that we the faithful, acknowldege and celebrate the saving action of Christ. The reception of Communion at Mass is a sign of our belief in the redemptive power of Christ in our personal lives, in the Church, and in the world.

CELEBRATION OF THE SACRAMENT

The Mass is celebrated Sundays and weekdays at All Saints.
The desire of the Church is for all of the faithful to gather on Sundays and Holy Days. The faithful are also invited to daily Mass.
