The Infinite Worshiper
Holy Thursday 2025
Today we are celebrating the birthday of the Sacrifice of the Mass, the Holy Eucharist, and the priesthood. We have been warned that we must learn from the sacred things we witness during this time, and it is incumbent upon us to call to mind the details of Our Lord’s life during these last days and moments before His death. Christ explained to the Apostles at the Last Supper that the bread, wine, and lamb of the Passover meal are all one in Him. For all priests all Thursdays are a day of retreat in commemoration of this great anniversary of the priesthood. After the moment of the Incarnation all the prayers of the angels now pass through the Son of God made man. First, He gave us Himself in the consecration of the bread, then in the consecration of the wine He gave us the Mass, and lastly, He instructed the Apostles to “do in like manner” and in these words He gave us the priesthood. Today we continue the great feast of love practiced by the early Church and thank God for the birthday of the Eucharistic Christ.
