"To share a meal, and not just food, but also affection, stories, events, is a fundamental experience.” — Pope Francis

In our fast-paced culture, it is too easy to grab a meal on the go and rationalize why it’s okay not to spend “all that time” preparing a sit-down meal. For the sake of efficiency however, what are we really sacrificing? True joy can be found at a shared meal. Sharing a meal is transformative. Taking the time to make and share a meal creates an opportunity for us all to encounter Christ in ourselves, and especially in one another - whether that shared meal is in our home or in the Eucharist every Sunday.
