“We prostrate ourselves before a God who, like a Good Samaritan, was first to bow to mankind as a way to rescue and give him new life, who knelt before us to wash our dirty feet. Worshiping the Body of Christ means believing that in that piece of bread there really is Christ, who gives meaning to life, the immense universe and the whole of human history as well as the shortest existence.” — Pope Benedict XVI, speaking yesterday on the Feast of Corpus Christi.
