At the Last Supper, Jesus said, “Take this bread. It is my body.” Then he said, “Take this and drink. This is my blood. Do this in memory of me.”
Catholics believe this was the First Eucharist, that through a miracle the bread and wine actually became the body and blood of Jesus Christ.
Catholics reenact the Last Supper during every Mass, where God, acting through the priest, changes the bread and wine into the body and blood of Jesus Christ.
This is a great sacrament of thanksgiving and unity of Catholics.
With love in Christ.

At the Last Supper or on Holy Thursday. This was the evening before Good Friday or before the Day Jesus died on the cross.

At the last supper. Jesus said to do this in memory of me. It is symbolic of Jesus sacrifice. It commemorates the Passover lamb.
