Jean-Marie Lustiger

Every Eucharist celebrated is an act that comes to find us, each and every one of us, and gather us into a Body… The Eucharist is thus the first task of a church; it traces the first circle of belonging. If you live the Eucharistic celebration during a certain time, you know well that there is established in you a road and a progression.
Jean-Marie Cardinal Lustiger (1926–2007)
