Why I Go To Daily Mass

by Jack Lupica ’14

The Jesuit Community at St. Ignatius High School has blest us with the gift of daily mass.   I always look forward to my lunch period not only because I get to eat lunch, but more importantly, I receive spiritual food through the reception of Jesus in the Eucharist.

There are a number of reasons why I have decided to take advantage of this great gift.  The most important reason is that I am given the opportunity to spend time with Jesus asking Him for support in my day with all of its challenges.

I also attend to thank God for all of the many gifts He has blest me with.  Once, St. Teresa asked Our Lord, \”How can I thank you?”
