Marcellino D'Ambrosio: Feast of Corpus Christi

Catholics don’t just go to church on Sunday, like other Christians. They go to Mass. Christmas, New Years, weddings, funerals. It seems that we just can’t seem to do anything important without this ceremony which some regard as a sacrifice and others as a fellowship meal and still others as “the real presence.”

So which is it–sacrifice, supper, or “real presence” and why the fixation upon it?
