St. Paul's teaching on the mystery of the Eucharist comes alive in Fr. Pacwa's one hour lecture. Fr. Pacwa cites 1 Corinthians, the only Epistle in which St. Paul addressed the Eucharist, and by relating it to other Eucharistic passages in the Bible, shows that when St. Paul speaks of the "breaking of the bread", he is referring to the Holy Eucharist, to the Mass itself. ___________________ Join the Parousia mailing list at https://www.parousiamedia.com/mailing-list/ Parousia is committed to proclaiming the fullness of truth!

A scriptural study of God as our “Abba” through the five Sorrowful Mysteries of the Rosary, Dolorosa explores some of the deficits that proceed from woundedness – anger/rage vs. rest; rebellion vs. faith; revenge vs. forgiveness; abandonment vs. presence; perfectionism vs. grace; fear vs. love. We experience what it means to have a safe place to acknowledge weakness and receive strength. We explore worship as trusting-love-in-sacrifice, in which we reach beyond our deficits to God, and learn from Jesus how to climb into the bosom of a loving Heavenly Father (John 1:18). In following Jesus’s own path through suffering, we discover the fire of the Father’s love burns away all that hides His goodness in the world. ____________________________   Join the Parousia mailing list at https://www.parousiamedia.com/mailing-list/ Parousia is committed to proclaiming the fullness of truth!
