Only the Church can offer the Creator this pure oblation (the Eucharist), offering what comes from his creation with a spirit of thanksgiving. (SAINT IRENAEUS) St. Gemma Galgani was not able to close her eyes at the thoughts of being able to receive the Holy Eucharist day after day. “Imagining there to be an academy in Heaven, she said, the only thing that was to be learned was how to love. The school is in the upper room, the Master is Jesus, the teachings are his Body and Blood”. 269
