Eucharist: God's Way of Embracing Us A DVD series with Fr. Ron Rolheiser We are a Eucharist people, a Eucharist Church, a community formed and nurtured by the Eucharist. How does Eucharist work? What are its various meanings? In an engaging manner, Ron Rolheiser invites us to reflect on the many ways different Christian traditions have understood the Eucharist, or the Lord’s Supper. This two-part DVD presentation examines the breadth of insight into our celebration of the Eucharist – as ritual; as God’s “physical embrace;” as invitation to being transformed more fully into Christ; as the new manna – our daily bread; as sacrifice; as a gathering of the community; and as a prayer for the world. Those belonging to Anglican, Protestant and Roman Catholic traditions will be delighted, challenged and stretched as they reflect on the wonderful gift they have received in the Eucharist. This DVD is presented in two parts. In order to allow for time for personal and small group reflection, this retreat is best experienced as a 2.5 hour evening or half day event. Ronald Rolheiser, a Roman Catholic priest and member of the Missionary Oblates of Mary Immaculate, is president of the Oblate School of Theology in San Antonio, Texas. He is a community-builder, lecturer and writer. His books are popular throughout the English-speaking world and his weekly column is carried by more than sixty newspapers worldwide.
