Roman Catholic AnswerBecause that is what it is! The Mass is the re-presentation of Our Blessed Lord's sacrifice of Himself on the Cross at Calvary. At the Mass, we are privileged to witness Our Lord's sacrifice - the once and only sacrifice - and to participate in the graces He extends through it to us.
