Abstract
In this article, the author cffers his nftections on the importance efforming every Christian in devotion to the Eucharist. Reflecting on its role under six themes, the
author argues that, aware ef the real presence ef God in the Holy Eucharist, every
Christian should be lost in wonder before this reality.
This paper is an invitation to on-going formation into a deep appreĀ ciation of the sacrament of the Holy Eucharist. It is important for us to arrive at a sense of Eucharistic amazement as we live our Christian lives.
I am proposing that a Christian's on-going formation needs to be centred on the reality of the Eucharist. Eve1y Christian life needs to be a reflection of the Eucharist. Writing about how the Eucharist should be mirrored in the religious life, E. Rinere tells us that 'the Eucharist speaks' everything. It is all-encompassing' .1
Even though my paper relies for the most part on Holy Scripture, I recommend the reader to consult the books in the bibliography beĀ cause these have influenced my understanding of the Eucharist.
