As I gaze at the altar piece, I am filled with gratitude for the gift of the Eucharist at the first “Last Supper”. The apostles, including Judas, were given the Body and Blood of Jesus. It is the same gift that was initially given to the earliest Irish settlers here in 1851 as well as continuously multiple times a week for the past 174 years. Their faith brought them here. The continuity of their faith has blessed so many throughout the years with each mass. This artist’s rendering reminds us of our deep responsibility and commitment to continue this faith sharing where ever we go.
