"A Sunday without Mass...is not a true Sunday: in fact, it lacks Sunday's heart and thus also the light for the week." (Benedict XVI Q&A audience with children, 30 May 2009)
It is good to remember this truth: the vital nature of the Lord's Day and the centrality of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass to that day. Without the Mass the Sunday is dead and the week is dark! Everyone needs the Mass because everyone needs Christ. Christ gives man, every man, his proper meaning as man, i.e. imago Dei.
