	The consecration of the bread and wine takes place in this prayer. Jesus is our true High Priest. What was bread becomes His Body and what was wine becomes His Blood--by His priestly power. Jesus renews and extends the reality of the Last Supper and the reality of His sacrifice on the Cross in every Mass. Every member of the Body of Christ shares in the priesthood of believers. We are called to the self-offering of Jesus in the Mass by offering ourselves to Him in return. The action of Jesus is made visible and audible through the sacramental ministry of the priest; the priestly action of the whole Body of Christ in receiving Jesus and offering ourselves to the Father through Him is invisible and inaudible. It can only be seen through the eyes of faith.		The consecration of the bread and wine takes place in this prayer. Jesus is our true High Priest.

	\|Transubstantiation		\|Transubstantiation
	\|At the consecration of the Mass, which is in the Eucharistic Prayer when the priest says, "This is my Body ... This is the chalice of my Blood," the substance of bread is changed entirely into the Body of Christ and the substance of wine is changed entirely into the Blood of Christ. This change takes place in the gifts that we place on the altar. Their ''trans-substantiation'' into the Body and Blood of Jesus changes them but does not change Jesus Himself. After the bread has become the Body of Christ and the wine has become the Blood of Christ, we called them "sacred species." What we do in eating the sacred species of bread and drinking the sacred species of wine does NOT injure Jesus in any way at all. The apostles received the sacred species at the Last Supper and saw with their own eyes that receiving the "Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity" of Jesus did not cause Him any harm. The sacred species act on us to make us into sacred vessels. We cannot act on the sacred species to change the Body or Blood of Jesus in any way whatsoever.		\|At the consecration of the Mass, which is in the Eucharistic Prayer when the priest says, "This is my Body ...

			\|''"ex opere operato"''
			\|In all seven sacraments, Jesus acts directly and personally on the souls of His People. The priest is not a pipeline of grace, so that his sins and character defects cannot in any way prevent Jesus from baptizing, confirming, forgiving sin, giving us Himself under the appearance of bread and wine, uniting couples in marriage, ordaining deacons, priest, and bishops, or anointing the sick. Jesus uses the ministers of the sacraments as instruments but not as "channels" of grace.

All of them tell the story of the Last Supper, a Passover meal that Jesus shared with His disciples. In this ritual of the Old Testament ("Old Covenant"), Jesus initiated the New Testament ("New Covenant") and associated the gift of His Body and Blood as "real food ... real drink" (Jn 6:55) with the sacrifice that He was about to offer on the Cross.

			:: "Take this, all of you, and eat of it, for this is my Body, which will be given up for you."

			:: "Take this, all of your, and drink from it, for this is the chalice of my Blood, the Blood of the new and eternal covenant, which will be poured out for you and for many, for the forgiveness of sins. Do this in memory of me."

			The consecration of the bread and wine takes place in this prayer. Jesus is our true High Priest. What was bread becomes His Body and what was wine becomes His Blood--by His priestly power. Jesus renews and extends the reality of the Last Supper and the reality of His sacrifice on the Cross in every Mass. Every member of the Body of Christ shares in the priesthood of believers. We are called to the self-offering of Jesus in the Mass by offering ourselves to Him in return. The action of Jesus is made visible and audible through the sacramental ministry of the priest; the priestly action of the whole Body of Christ in receiving Jesus and offering ourselves to the Father through Him is invisible and inaudible. It can only be seen through the eyes of faith.
