“We are to celebrate the Lord's paschal sacrifice
with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth. The leaven of our former
malice is thrown out, and a new creature is filled and inebriated with the Lord
himself. For the effect of our sharing in the body and blood of Christ is to
change us into what we receive. As we have died with him, and had been buried
and raised to life with him, so we bear him within us, both in body and in
spirit in everything we do.” —From a sermon by Pope St. Leo the Great (c.
400-461), Sermo 12 de Passione, 3,
6-7: PL 54, 355-357
