7 p.m. Mass of Holy Thursday of the Lord's Supper

#LIVE | Welcome to St. Bernard Catholic faith community in Glassell Park, California, and our celebration of Holy Thursday of the Lord's Supper. Our blessing-cup. + Jesus “loved his own in the world, and he loved them to the end.” The Paschal Mystery into which we enter this evening is the fulfilment of Christ’s mission to “reveal the mystery of the Father and his love” for us (Gaudium et Spes 22). In the Old Testament, the climactic revelation of God’s love was in Israel’s exodus from Egypt, remembered at the Passover supper. Jesus gives us a new and eternal covenant, instituting a new priesthood and leading us to an exodus from sin. The Mass — in which the mystery of Christ’s Passion is made present — is the continual outpouring of his merciful love. In it, this evening and always, Jesus loves us to the end. + We gather as the Body of Christ, #LACatholics, and qith our viewers around the world. Where are you watching from?
