Sommario/riassunto

"For Balthasar, the Eucharist is Christ's thanksgiving to the Father in heaven for having given Him the gift of giving Himself for all. Ciraulo shows in a convincing way that this eternal thanksgiving is given to us as God's most precious gift that moves us toward fulfillment in heaven." --Fr Jacques Servais, editor of Hans Urs von Balthasar on the Spiritual Exercises.
