The Eucharist Also called the Mass or Lord’s Supper; “Thanksgiving” The central Christian liturgical celebration, established by Jesus at the Last Supper The sacrificial death and resurrection of Jesus are both remembered and renewed The term “Eucharist” refers specifically to the consecrated bread and wine that have become the Body and Blood of Christ
