Show Notes

We are hoping the pandemic is nearing its conclusion with the vaccine rolling out in force, so it is fitting to ask a few questions.  Why do have the Mass at all?  Well, Jesus said "Do this in remembrance of me."  But it is also fitting for God to give it to us as a continuation of His Presence, of His Sacrifice, and of His Communion with us.  Plus, it's fitting for us because we are physical and social creatures, and that's how we do important things: in a physical and social way.
