With all the negative publicity of late and the many disagreements I have with the institutional Catholic Church I remain Catholic. For me it is all about the Eucharist and my belief in the real presence of the body and blood of Christ in that sacrament. There is no equivalency to be found in any other Christian church. Our Lord Jesus Christ endured death on the cross that we might live and gave us the miracle of the Eucharist that we might be nourished by his grace. I can barely comprehend the enormity of these gifts.

What are others saying? Read on my friends and find peace in the unconditional love we have been granted.
