MAIN BODY
Eucharist in the catholic school
The catholic schools all around the world have been seen to find pride of place in their
learning communities which helps their students to acquire academic as well as personal
excellence. One of the reason for the universal distinctiveness of catholic education has been the
ritual of Eucharist. This ritual has been considered as the heartbeat to a sacramental church. It is
responsible for drawing out the community together and also sending it out. Catholic schools
around the world follow the pattern of Eucharist. In these schools the children gather every day
and share their stories of their lives. This pattern of gathering together sharing stores and meals
before returning to the end of the day makes huge difference embracing these movements. The
idea behind this ritual is connecting the agency of god to the stories of each child which provides
the feeling of togetherness of everyone in the community by promising of both intimacy and
bread. This is able to teach the children gratitude for being welcome and kindness which is
generated by love (Olson, 2015).
With the help of this teaching of Eucharist the catholic schools are able to develop
effective education which is about the significance of Eucharist and its worth celebration. It
helps the students in learning the effective and creative role of collaboration and participation of
the students, staff and the parents with the celebration of Eucharist ritual. The challenges which
is faced by the these institutions are the increasing number of non-Eucharistic and non church
adhering students. Some schools also has to struggle with the lack of linkage between the school
and the catholic community Maliszewska (2019). This is because in this ritual the presence of
every is important. By assuming that not everyone is same this ritual celebrates the value of
diversity. There are certain students and families which are more active and committed to the

catholic values. There are different people from different religion which are given their own
space as being part of this ritual. This is because the ritual rejoice in the God's mysterious plan of
choosing different paths for different people.
The ritual of Eucharist is considered as the centre of the Catholic life. The principles
offered by this ritual and its convictions are believed to have application on the range of pastoral
setting. According to Catholic schools the parents are considered to be the best and first teacher
of the children. This is because they help them recognize the roles and importance of this
worshipping community Stow (2018) This ritual is considered very hopeful for the synthesis as a
useful resource to the teachers you have to play a very similar role to that of the parents. Does
with the help of this ritual the teachers become supporting parents to the children by
communicating the Catholic students about the rituals and practises of Eucharist. Faith has been
very important in this ritual and also as a part of our students life. With the help of this rituals
Catholic Schools find bread for the Catechists. The idea is making the students find food in the
lines which are said by the Catechists and also reaching out to the many children which attend
the school with their families. The place In Catholic school be forced one place to place as an
internal part of parish community. Meanwhile, others are seen serving the particular region or a
wider community. The role of the priest is also very crucial as it includes some reflections to the
people who have trust and are very personally helpful for encouraging confidence with the help
of his words which are also known as preside. Priests are responsible for creating charismatic
witness a pastoral reawakening of Catholic presence in the love of God even after for getting that
the grace and love of the community remains at every moment.
The ritual of Eucharist has form a very central role in the Christian way of worship. The
followers of this religion consider that it is a memorial action in which eating bread and drinking
wine is used for recalling what Jesus Christ said and did. It is considered that the one who
participates in this ritual enhances their belief not just with Christ but also with one another
Moret & O'Dwyer (2020). This is why it is important for the Catholic Church to use this ritual
for making the students understand about each other and there social community. The symbol of
Eucharist is a fostering unity within the church. In the current times unity and contention has
been very weak among the society. With the help of this ritual in the Catholic schools the
community can go stronger and carry out this in the further generation. The most important thing
for this ritual is for the people to be symbolic. This is because the ritual is very formal and this

constraining the experience of Holy Spirit in the individuals. In this diverse world it is very
important for the Catholic Church to keep their children familiar to their activities and religious
practises Von Schlichten (2017). This ritual is the perfect way of doing so, sharing food brings
people together which is important for channelling the grace opportunity. Those individuals who
are not the part of the community or believe in other religion also find this ritual good for
socializing and gaining spiritual peace in there usually hectic life.
