At times, the Catechism of the Catholic Church can read like a plumber’s manual. While such an approach might be needed in some areas, such as within the intricacies of the various parts of the creed, it’s not as required in the realm of the spiritual life. And so, while the fourth part of the Catechism has an important internal structure, it certainly breaks from any resemblance of a manualistic approach to prayer.
The Eucharist is the blessing and adoration of God by the Lord Jesus. It is the height of petition and intercession as the Lord offers himself to the Father for our salvation. The Eucharist is the Lord Jesus’ thanksgiving to the Father for giving him the call to redeem and bring humanity back to him. On this point, the word “eucharist” literally means “thanksgiving.” And the Eucharist is the praise of God the Son to God the Father by the power of God the Holy Spirit.
The Catechism explains: “ is ‘the pure offering’ of the whole Body of Christ to the glory of God’s name and, according to the traditions of East and West, it is the ‘sacrifice of praise.’”
