New Heart:
There is no additional sacrifice, we participate in by a proclimation of the one sacrifice of Jesus. We follow his command: “Do this in remembrance of me” and His words “For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the death of the Lord until he comes.”
[1 Cor 11:24,26]
Some non-Catholics seem to think as you do, that Catholics are offering additional (and what would of course be unnecessary) sacrifices. Hopefully my explanation above shows that this is just a misunderstanding.
I understand that some non-Catholics disagree with Catholic teaching, but I’d rather someone disagree with what I *actually * believe rather than what they mistakingly think I believe.
Cheers, my brother!!

I may be able to help with your search for understanding.I am trying to understand that if the catholic church is practicing what Christ says then why would they continually offer sacrifices that are no longer required since Christ did it once for all?
