Amen SUNDAY: 7 JUNE: THE MOST HOLY BODY AND BLOOD OF CHRIST From the Pastor “My heart’s desire and prayer to God for them is that they may be saved.” Romans 10:1 Mes chers amis, On this Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Our Lord, we renew our faith in the great gift of the Holy Eucharist. Corpus Christi celebrates the greatest treasure of the Church: the Holy Eucharist, which Our Lord Jesus said is the means of being truly one with Him on this earth and the way to Eternal Life. Will we ever allow ourselves to walk away and abandon Our Lord in the Holy Eucharist through sin? Why do so many people do so? Or, like St. Peter, do we realize the greatness of the gift and respond, “Master, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life.” (John 6:68). Today, let us remember two important things: Jesus’ command: “Do this in memory of me.”(Luke 22:19) We MUST celebrate the Holy Eucharist faithfully and reverently on the Lord’s Holy Day. Every Sunday. Secondly, St. Paul’s serious admonition: “Whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord unworthily will have to answer for the body and blood of the Lord. A person should examine himself, and so eat the bread and drink the cup. For anyone who eats and drinks without discerning the body, eats and drinks judgment on himself.” (1 Corinthians 11:27-29). We must NEVER commit the sacrilege of receiving the Lord’s Body and Blood in the state of sin. There is always the possibility of going to Confession to be forgiven of our mortal sins before receiving Holy Communion. Thanks be to God for this indescribable gift of life! Let us respond with gratitude by celebrating the Holy Eucharist faithfully, reverently, and worthily! This Sunday - June 7 - we will have our annual Corpus Christi Procession following the 10:00am Mass. We will process inside the church and conclude with Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament. Everyone is invited to participate in this event. This is an excellent opportunity to strengthen our faith in the Real Presence of Christ in the Holy Eucharist Dans le Sacré Cœur du Christ, Fr.
