FAMILY is defined as the basic unit of the society, meaning FAMILY is also
the basis of our FAITH.
“ The death of family is the death of humanity, and it is the great danger”
(Papal legate Cardinal Maung Bo- during the International Eucharistic
Congress 2016)
We have our own personal struggles in our family and its members
Conflicts in Family is nothing new, in fact, it is the common theme in many
stories in the bible. One example of such family strife is the story of Jacob and
his brother Esau (see Gen.25:29-34, Gen.27:18;40 and Gen.27:41)
“The hardest place to follow Jesus is at your home”
Guess what? Not one of us has a perfect family here on earth. We all get sick
of each other at times.
There may be some misunderstanding of the family that may discourage us
but remember that God doesn’t want His children to be lonely. That’s why HE
sets up a family for us, not only our actual family, but also people in the
church.
There are three powerful words that will heal family’s conflict. Words such as:
“May I”, “Thank You” and “Sorry”.
Crowds who follow to hear Jesus words are mostly families.
And family who took effort on following and listening to Jesus will never be
hungry.
None of us is perfect also, but even our simple gestures and actions of love to
reach out on our family will make a difference.

Processing:
Eucharist is from the Gk. Word “Eukaristein”
It is a thanksgiving and a sacrifice.
Love and Mercy is the core value of the Eucharist
Eucharist is the love of Christ and compassion to His people.
The multiplication of loaves is about the Eucharist. The liturgy of the word
preceeds the liturgy of the Eucharist.
Jesus needs the broken and the needy in order to share. So if you are self –
satisfied, in control of your life,if everything is going- well and you do not need
the help of another, then the Eucharist is not for you. But if you are broken
and empty, if you are utterly in need and realize you dependence on one
another, then the Eucharist is for you.
The wonder of the Eucharist is that Jesus truly transforms bread and wine
into Himself, for then he can transform us through the Eucharist.
Everytime you learn how to love which is rooted in the family and be
compassionate to others, there you will realize the true meaning of the
Eucharist.
