Thanksgiving and the Eucharist
Thanksgiving and the Eucharist
On Thanksgiving, we pause to give thanks to the good Lord for His countless blessings, for the gift of faith, for family and friends, and above all, for the gift of His Son in the Eucharist. The word “Eucharist” means “thanksgiving” in Greek, and every Mass we attend is the perfect act of thanksgiving.

The "Domestic Church" is a little-known term but is of extreme importance. So much so, that if we lose it, society will cease to exist. In this week’s episode, Fr. Chris Alar, MIC, shares the Church’s teaching on the definition of the term and what it means for Catholics. He also shares an incredible example of a town that you wouldn’t believe still exists today and how its inhabitants live out the essence of the domestic Church in their everyday lives.
