CORPUS CHRISTI “OUR FEAST DAY”

The Feast of the Body and Blood of Christ

This feast originated in 1244 in Liege, France

and has been celebrated throughout the Church

ever since. In many places there are outdoor pro-

cessions. We might joke and say “Jesus is going

out for his yearly walk!” but what a blessing for

our community that we would honour him and with

no greater affirmation than that he is our Lord

and we celebrate that publicly.

The Church proclaims its belief in the “very

presence” of Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament, fol-

lowing his words, “This is My Body; This is My

Blood”. Our religious practices confirm this in the

Sanctuary lamp, always lit; and our reverence by

genuflecting before the TABERNACLE when we

come to Church, proclaiming by our bended knee

that Jesus is there, body and soul.

Sometimes we give short shift to our Lord.

Sometimes we treat our Churches like they are

multi-purpose rooms or gathering spaces rather

than as places to pray and adore. One hymn that

puts forth our teaching would be “this is holy

ground; we are standing on holy ground”. It is

good to be open to others but “catching up with

the news” might be best put off ‘til after Mass.

We are called to teach what we believe and

pass it on. The best way to accomplish this is to

model it. Prayer - Adoration - Respect for the

Lord in the Blessed Sacrament should be our goal.

The Procession on the Feast of Corpus Christi

This weekend we celebrate the titular feast of

the parish. This feast is almost 1000 years old

and celebrates, “The Body and Blood of Christ”.

In past times, the tradition of a public procession

with the Monstrance with Christ through the

streets of the Parish (town) was the normative

form of praise to Jesus. We will bring this to

fruition with “a Walk with Jesus” around the

edge of the parish (Curry, McKay, Dominion & Ca-

bana) after the 12 noon Mass. We will finish with

benediction and refreshments.

God bless all of us.

Priests Thank You For Your Generosity

Last weekend, our parish took a special collection

to support our retired priests. Despite these dif-

ficult economic times, we appreciate your gener-

ous response to share in the care of those faith-

ful priests who have ministered to your spiritual

needs for generations. Your priests truly appreci-

ate your support and thank you for contributing

so generously to the Priests’ Pension Plan collec-

tion. If you haven’t given yet, you may still return

the special collection envelope in upcoming collec-

tions or give it to the parish office. Please make a

notation for Priests’ Pension Collection on the

check or envelope.

vegetables, pasta sauce (not pasta), canned and dried

in need are canned meat and salmon, peanut butter and
