Responsorial Psalm (Psalm 78)
R. The Lord gave them bread from heaven.
Yet he commanded the skies above and the doors of heaven he opened;
He rained manna upon them for food and gave them heavenly bread.
Man ate the bread of angels, food he sent them in abundance.
R. The Lord gave them bread from heaven.

Mere humans, men and women, ate the Bread of Angels. Bread of Angels is an ancient title of the Eucharist. https://youtu.be/79kTCw4543k?si=EKXpG0_nEGlx7z1I
These reflections are a result of more than 40 years of ministry as a Roman Catholic priest. Most of these years I spent in the Diocese of Charlotte which covers Western North Carolina. Now I am retired, and live in Medellín, Colombia where I continue to serve as a priest in the Archdiocese of Medellín.
