Truly, God has revealed what He is 'like': so loving and humble that He was willing to let His creatures mock and kill Him, rather than abandon His mission to save us from sin. And now, we can be present at Mass, where that same loving Saviour offers His Eternal Sacrifice.
We have an astonishing power when we pray with Jesus, in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. The whole Church is united in offering praise and thanks, to the delight of God the Father.

Some of our attempts to attract young people to Mass are unnecessary or even foolish. It is the living memorial of the Sacrifice of Christ; and if they believe and appreciate this they will long to be there.
Any priest who offers the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, yet rushes away to fulfil his own selfish plans, or to continue a sinful lifestyle, moves as if from Heaven to Hell in a few minutes, leaving the 'Heaven' which is Christ's Real Presence to the 'hell' which is human life when the 'door' has been shut to God.
Christ spoke at the Consecration of the wine, saying "I shed My Blood for them". He was speaking of the people in the Church who distrust His message and lead others astray, and show little appreciation of what Christ has done for us by His Death and Resurrection. They rarely mention these holy Mysteries.
Christ is concerned for everyone and everything on our planet as He intercedes for us and offers His Holy Sacrifice.
The Father hears the prayers we offer in Jesus' name. Jesus is living to intercede for us, and does so not just in Heaven, but also here upon earth in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass.
In becoming man, the Son of God chose to share our life on earth, and our sufferings - though He is without sin. And He sacrificed His life so that we could be freed from sin and from the fear of death.
Our Lady of Sorrows: Truly, Our Blessed Lady suffered horribly as Jesus Christ her beloved son died in torment on the Cross. It is as if we pray with her at the foot of the Cross, each time we pray before the altar in church at the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass.
At every Mass we are present to the Sacrifice once offered on Calvary, when Christ suffered and died for us, as His Mother stood by Him. It's as if Calvary protrudes through the floor of our sanctuary, the Cross at the centre.

Many Catholics have no idea of what is really happening at Mass. It is tragic that so many children say that they are bored at Mass. Not having been instructed about the Holy Sacrifice of Christ, they are ignorant of the fact that Christ is truly Present amongst us, praising the Father of Light in the presence of the whole Church. We pray with the Saints and the Holy Souls, and with the Holy Angels.
Life in Christ involves both fasting and feasting. We should love what is good, but be prepared to sacrifice this when necessary for an even greater Good, which is God.

Christ accepted death, in order to conquer death. He rose from the grave by His Divine power; He shared that same power with His devoted followers - and still does so today. Christ has made a Way back to Heaven, in which we can follow.
Christ asked me a rhetorical question, saying 'Where are the others?' He meant: If Catholics had been well-taught about the Holy Sacrifice, and about Christ's Real Presence, many more would be present even at a week-day Mass.
