Mass (Christian liturgy)

In Christian liturgy, Mass is the central religious ceremony especially in the Catholic Church, commemorating the Last Supper of Jesus Christ. It involves prayer, Scripture readings, hymns, and a Eucharist—where bread and wine are consecrated to become the body and blood of Christ. Participants gather to worship, reflect on their faith, and receive spiritual nourishment. The Mass emphasizes communion with God and community, blending tradition, prayer, and ritual to deepen believers’ connection with Christ and their faith. It is both a sacred act of worship and a celebration of Christian belief.
