Roman Catholic AnswerThe Last Supper is important to Catholics and to the whole world, in that, it was at the Last Supper that Our Blessed Lord redeemed the world. The Last Supper was the "making present" of Our Blessed Lord's Passion, Death, and Resurrection to his apostles, and through the continuation of it in the Eucharist, to everyone of us throughout history. In the most sacred Eucharist, which was established with the Last Supper, Our Blessed Lord becomes physically present and remains, it is the greatest miracle that God has bestowed upon us, for which we should be grateful every moment of our lives.
