Lesson Vocabulary

  • Lamb of God
    :
    A title given to Jesus that describes His sacrifice to free us from sin. In the Old Testament, a lamb was sacrificed for the temporary forgiveness of sin. Jesus’ sacrifice makes the forgiveness of sin possible for everyone for all time.
  • Liturgy of the Word
    :
    The first part of the Mass in which we receive the written Word of God. In this part of the Mass, the Scriptures are proclaimed and the priest teaches us in his homily. We also join together in prayer for others and profess our faith.
  • Liturgy of the Eucharist
    :
    The second part of the Mass in which we receive the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ in the Eucharist. In this part of the Mass, the priest prays the words of consecration and changes the bread and wine in the Body and Blood of Christ. We also come to the altar of the Lord and receive Holy Communion.
