In this third and final episode explaining the different parts of the holy sacrifice of the Catholic Mass, Fr. Chris Alar, MIC, concludes the Liturgy of the Eucharist with the distribution of Holy Communion, the Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity of Our Lord Jesus Christ, and the sending forth of the faithful to share the abundance of graces received in the Mass.

What is the importance of Holy Communion? How is it that the Eucharist is the true Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity of Jesus Christ? Why must we eat His flesh and drink His Blood in Holy Communion to gain eternal life? Fr. Chris Alar explains in this episode of Explaining the Faith.

The Apostles Creed states that Jesus "Descended into hell." What does that mean? Was it the hell of the damned or some other place? And what did he do when he came? What was the purpose of his visit and whom did he encounter? Fr. Chris Alar shows you what the Church has taught on this matter for centuries.
