The Lamb and Heaven
No fixed feast day in the calendar
The heavenly liturgy honors the Lamb who was slain to redeem humanity.
The heavenly liturgy of the Lamb
John witnesses a magnificent liturgy in heaven. The Lamb who was slain, yet stands, represents the risen Jesus Christ. Only He is worthy to open the scroll containing God's plan. This adoration confirms the victory of sacrificial love over all powers of evil.
Prayer
United with the sacrificial Lamb
- Every Mass shares in the heavenly liturgy. When we celebrate the Eucharist, we join the worship of heaven.
- The sacrificial Lamb is our strength and hope. His self-giving love sustains us.
Always unite yourself with the Lamb in the Eucharist.
Prayer
O Lamb of God, grant me a share in Your eternal life.
