"The chalice of benediction which we bless, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ? And the bread which we break, is it not the partaking of the body of the Lord? For we, being many, are one bread, one body: all that partake of one bread." (1 Cor 10:16-17)

A Must Read for Catholics and Evangelicals
Mark Shea has yet another brilliant article at Catholic Exchange. In Apollos, Priscilla, Aquila and the Glory of Eupocrisy, he's calling on Catholics to look beyond what Evangelicals say and realize that what they mean is far closer to our Catholic faith than we'd have thought. Perhaps this is because faith is a gift, and the obvious good fruits from both camps can only attest to this faith as having come from the same source. God is harmony Himself and cannot but speak with one voice through His one Word, our Lord, Jesus Christ, by the Holy Spirit that alone plumbs the depths of God and plumbs the depths of our hearts.
Come, Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of Thy faithful and enkindle in them the fire of Thy love.
V. Send forth Thy Spirit and they shall be created.
R. And Thou shalt renew the face of the earth.
Let us pray. O God, Who didst instruct the hearts of the faithful by the light of the Holy Spirit, grant us in the same Spirit to be truly wise, and ever to rejoice in His consolation. Through Christ our Lord.
