VII. The Eucharist – “Pledge of the Glory To Come”
1404
The Church knows that the Lord comes even now in his Eucharist and that he is
there in our midst. However, his presence is veiled. Therefore we celebrate the
Eucharist “awaiting the blessed hope and the coming of our Savior, Jesus
Christ,”243 asking “to share in your glory when every tear
will be wiped away. On that day we shall see you, our God, as you are. We shall
become like you and praise you for ever through Christ our
Lord.”244
