It is a holy, weekly declaration that violence does not win. That the broken body is not the end of the story. That the hungry are meant to be fed, not forgotten. That those the world discards are not disposable—they are the very presence of Christ.
When we gather at the altar, we are not just remembering something ancient—we are refusing to let the world teach us to forget the sacredness of human life. We are practicing justice. We are sharing mercy. We are proclaiming resurrection in the face of empire, apathy, and death.

Perhaps nowadays they don’t go to church and hear this message every week as people used to?
The Body of Christ is real.
So is the hunger.
So is the hope.
Take. Eat. Resist. Rejoice.
