'In a world in which technology is increasingly gaining the upper hand over man, we need space to refresh ourselves. Men need to draw breath and slate their thirst...Far, then, from being a retreat into the past, this book is meant as a pilgrimage to the life-giving wellsprings; its aim is to make possible a vital grasp of the eucharist as expressed and experienced by early Christians. It is good for us to acquire a sense of what life was like for the early Christians and to see what their hopes were. In so doing, we rediscover our true selves.'
