	Eucharist - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In the teaching of the Roman Catholic Church, the Eucharist is one of the seven sacraments, but is also considered the "queen of the sacraments" and "the blessed sacrament", and the institution of the Eucharist is one of the Luminous Mysteries of the Rosary.
		The Eucharist is a commemoration, or, in Greek, anamnesis [8] of the Passion, Death, and Resurrection of Christ (called the Paschal Mystery), understood in the fullest sense given to it in Biblical tradition.
		The Eucharist is therefore understood to be not simply a representation of Christ's presence, or a remembrance of his Passion and Death, but an actual participation in the Sacrifice of Christ, the manifestation, in the present, of an event that occurred once for all in time.

	Mass (liturgy) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Eucharistic Liturgy begins when bread and wine are brought to the altar, either in a procession or simply from a nearby credence.
		The Eucharistic Prayer concludes with a doxology, with the priest holding up the paten with the host and the deacon (if there is one) the chalice, and the singing or recitation of the Amen by the people.
		The liturgy of the mass is typically derived from the Anglican prayer books authorised by the national churches of the Communion.

	Vatican II: The Constitution on the Sacred Liturgy: Excerpts on the Eucharist
		For it is the liturgy through which, especially in the divine sacrifice of the Eucharist, "the work of our redemption is accomplished,"[1] and it is through the liturgy, especially, that the faithful are enabled to express in their lives and manifest to others the mystery of Christ and the real nature of the true Church.
		Nevertheless the liturgy is the summit toward which the activity of the Church is directed; it is also the fount from which all her power flows.
		From the liturgy therefore, and especially from the Eucharist, grace is poured forth upon us as from a fountain, and the sanctification of men in Christ and the glorification of God to which all other activities of the Church are directed, as toward their end, are achieved with maximum effectiveness.

		This breathtaking idea was rejected, but it showed how far the eucharistic liturgy had strayed from the assemblies of the early church, where the priest and people usually acted in tandem.
		The presider’s principal role emerges as the liturgy shifts from the ambo, where the word is proclaimed and preached, to the altar, which the church from its earliest days has revered as a primary symbol of Christ.
		The eucharistic prayer was prayed silently by the priest, which underlined both its sacral nature and the belief that it no longer needed to involve the assembly directly.

	Catholic Culture : Document Library : A Theological Meditation On The Liturgy Of The Eucharist
		In the Byzantine liturgy of St. John Chrysostom the worshipping congregation is not only concelebrating with the angelic court, but make present on earth their heavenly worship insofar as we "mystically represent the Cherubim" in our Eucharistic liturgy.
		It seems that before the Eucharistic sacrifice is completed in Holy Communion where we all become "the one body of Christ, a living sacrifice of praise," and "an everlasting gift" to the Father, the Church, as it were, relishes and savors the greatest treasure she has, Christ himself as her own sacrifice.
		The Eucharistic Lord remains in the same state as he is during the Eucharistic celebration, the state of self-surrender to the Father and that of nourishing food for us, as long as the empirical signs of bread and wine remain.

	Scripture Catholic - THE EUCHARIST
		The Eucharist, which is the Incarnate Word of God under the appearance of bread, is stored in the tabernacles of Catholic churches around the world.
		The Eucharistic sacrifice is unbloody and lifegiving, the supreme and sacramental wave offering of Christ, mysteriously presented in a sacramental way, but nevertheless the one actual and eternal sacrifice of Christ.
		This is why those who enter into the Eucharistic celebration on earth enter into the presence of innumerable angels, the souls of the just made perfect, Jesus the Mediator of the Covenant and His sprinkled blood, and God the Judge of all.

	Mass - Liturgy Of The Eucharist
		While the liturgy of the word focused upon the table of the Lord’s word-the lectern, the Eucharistic liturgy centers upon the altar-both a place of sacrifice as well as the table from which as Christians we are fed. The themes of sacrifice, thanksgiving and meal dominate.
		Thus the Eucharist is often referred to in Scripture not in terms of the bread and wine but as actions of taking, blessing, breaking and sharing.

	The Gnosis of The Eucharist
		The non-Gnostic church after the third and fourth centuries A.D. regarded the Eucharist as a commemoration of the meal Jesus is said to have shared with his apostles, where he is said to have blessed bread and wine, admonishing those present to do the same in remembrance of him.
		The mystery of the Eucharist was thus transferred to the mental realm of belief, although mythic elements continued to subsist under the façade of dogma.
		And the celebration of the Eucharist is a daily reenactment of this same drama, fortified by the mystical communion one may partake of with the hero himself.

		The Eucharist thus appears as both the source and the summit of all evangelization, since its goal is the communion of mankind with Christ and in him with the Father and the Holy Spirit.
		The Eucharist too has its foundation in the Apostles, not in the sense that it did not originate in Christ himself, but because it was entrusted by Jesus to the Apostles and has been handed down to us by them and by their successors.
		Liturgy is never anyone's private property, be it of the celebrant or of the community in which the mysteries are celebrated.

		Add to this New Zealand’s tendency to divide the Eucharist into “two parts” – with the “first half” led by a lay person, the “second” led by a priest.

		Furthermore, the 1966 NZ eucharist revision was specifically designed so that the Liturgy of the Word might be used independently for Morning or Evening Prayer, including on Sundays – led by a lay person.

		Question: What is the rule concerning reception of the Holy Eucharist? When a person is late for Mass and has not heard the Gospel, can that person receive the Holy Eucharist? In times past, it was discussed that the parts of the Mass that were necessary to assist at were the Offertory, Consecration and Communion.
		--the liturgy of the Eucharist, with the presentation of the bread and wine [i.e., the offertory], the consecratory thanksgiving, and Communion.
		Therefore, it would seem to me that showing up after the liturgy of the Word is completed ordinarily would be "too late" when it comes to satisfying one's Mass obligation.
