Mike explains the meaning behind this sacrament’s various titles, including; thanksgiving to God, the Lord’s Supper, Breaking of Bread, the Holy Sacrifice, Holy Mass, and others. All the names of this sacrament ultimately remind us that the Eucharist is both a noun and a verb. It is the Son’s great sacrifice to the Father and Jesus Christ himself.
