This refers to the atoning death of Christ as the "lamb of God".

John 1:29 The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, "Behold! The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!

The phrase "paschal lamb" refers back to the lamb that the children of Israel were told to sacrifice before God led them out of Egypt. By sacrificing the lamb and painting it's blood on their doorpost the people were saved from God's judgment on the land of Egypt. This was the only way they could be saved from God's judgment

Today the only way a person can be saved from God's judgment to come is through Christ's sacrifice as the "lamb of God".

1John 5:11-13 And this is the testimony: that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life. These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life, and that you may continue to believe in the name of the Son of God.

What is the Paschal Mystery celebration?

When one talks of a paschal mystery, we most commonly think of The Paschal Mystery. This is the spiritual and/or supernatural experience of the passion, life, crucifixion death, and subsequent resurrection of Jesus Christ. The word Paschal is associated with God's message to the children of Israel about the sacrifice of the first Passover (Paschal) lamb.A paschal mystery has come to mean, even in pagan religions, basically the process of dying and rising, death and new life. We can begin to witness this all around us and in our own lives. In simply terms we see it in the seasons as the life and energy of one dies away only to give re-birth to the next. In the spiritual sense the loss of love or friendship and then the emotional rebirth of that spiritual connection could be experiencing a paschal mystery, perhaps a doctor working a cardiac arrest that saves the patient could also be argued as witnessing this mystery.

Roman Catholic Answer: "The wonderful works of God among the people of the Old Testament were but a prelude to the work of Christ the Lord in redeeming mankind and giving perfect glory to God. He accomplished this work principally by the Paschal mystery of His blessed Passion, Resurrection from the dead, and glorious Ascension, whereby 'dying he destroyed our death rising he restored our life.' For it was from the side of Christ as he slept the sleep of death upon the cross that there came forth 'the wondrous sacrament of the whole Church.'" Catechism of the Catholic Church # 1067


When is the last supper referred to in mass?

Thus he entrusted to his Church this memorial of his death and Resurrection. It is a sign of unity, a bond of charity, a paschal banquet, in which Christ is consumed, the mind is filled with grace, and a pledge of future glory is given to us.
