V. The Sacramental Sacrifice Thanksgiving, Memorial, Presence
1364
In the New Testament, the memorial takes on new meaning. When the Church
celebrates the Eucharist, she commemorates Christ’s Passover, and it is made
present the sacrifice Christ offered once for all on the cross remains ever
present.183 “As often as the sacrifice of the Cross by which
‘Christ our Pasch has been sacrificed’ is celebrated on the altar, the work of
our redemption is carried out.”184
