Welcome to the Word at St Francis, a welcoming and inclusive parish community coming to you from E 96th St in New York City. The Gospel is Mk 14:12-16, 22-26: On the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread, when they sacrificed the Passover lamb, Jesus' disciples said to him, "Where do you want us to go and prepare for you to eat the Passover?" He sent two of his disciples and said to them, "Go into the city and a man will meet you, carrying a jar of water. Follow him. Wherever he enters, say to the master of the house, 'The Teacher says, "Where is my guest room where I may eat the Passover with my disciples?"' Then he will show you a large upper room furnished and ready. Make the preparations for us there." The disciples then went off, entered the city, and found it just as he had told them; and they prepared the Passover. While they were eating, he took bread, said the blessing, broke it, gave it to them, and said, "Take it; this is my body." Then he took a cup, gave thanks, and gave it to them, and they all drank from it. He said to them, "This is my blood of the covenant, which will be shed for many. Amen, I say to you, I shall not drink again the fruit of the vine until the day when I drink it new in the kingdom of God." Then, after singing a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.

RCIA Director Matt Gray, reflects on the readings for the Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ - Corpus Christi

The Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ (Corpus Christi) Thursday after Holy Trinity unless otherwise indicated. In the U.S, the solemnity is transferred to the Sunday after the Holy Trinity Solemnity; Liturgical Color: White The gift of all gifts Standing at the crowded table in the dim candle light of the Upper Room during the Last Supper, Jesus Christ did not hand out Bibles to the Twelve Apostles and solemnly tell them, “Take this, all of you, and read it. This is my book, written for you.” Jesus gives us Himself, not a book. On today's Feast, we commemorate God's greatest gift to mankind, the person of Jesus Christ. God gives us His Son, and then Christ gives us Himself, body and blood, soul and divinity, under the accidents of bread and wine in the Holy Eucharist.  Gift, gift-giver, and receiver meld into one in this sacrament of sacraments. In the era of the early Church, it was customary for an excess of bread to be consecrated at Mass so that the Eucharist could be carried to the sick who had been unable to attend the Holy Sacrifice. This practice led to the adoption of the pyx as the first sacred vessel for reservation of the Eucharist. Some modern churches pay homage to these Eucharistic origins by hanging an oversized pyx on their wall to use as a tabernacle, imitating the early Church custom. Permanent reservation of the Eucharist led, over the centuries, to enthroning the Lord amidst the greatest splendor in churches. By the early medieval period, the time had long passed when the Eucharist was reserved merely to be brought to the sick. Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament, street processions, chants, confraternities, songs, flowers, and all the splendid trappings of a feast day covered this dogma in glory by the High Middle Ages, and continue to wrap it in honor today. Saint Thomas Aquinas taught that the most necessary sacrament was Baptism but that the most excellent was the Holy Eucharist. This most excellent sacrament has been, for some, too excellent. In the Gospel of John, when Jesus tells His disciples that they must eat His body and drink His blood, many are incredulous and walk away. But Jesus does not compromise or say He was misunderstood. He lets them keep on walking. This initially hard teaching for the few was destined, over time, to be lovingly welcomed by the many. The Old Covenant of the Old Testament was gory. In a kind of primitive liturgy, Moses had goats and sheep slaughtered on an altar and their blood gathered into buckets. He then splashed this blood over the people, sealing their acceptance of the written law. Flying droplets of animal blood splattered against people's skin to remind them of their promise to God. No such bloody drama breaks out at Sunday Mass. We each bless our head and torso with holy water and receive a pure white host on the tongue. The New Covenant is based not on the blood of goats, bull calves, or on the ashes of a heifer. It is rooted in the generosity of the Son of God, who “offered himself as the perfect sacrifice to God through the eternal Spirit.” Christ's Covenant with his people is established verbally and liturgically at the Last Supper and physically on the cross the following day. The consecration of the Sacred Species at Mass continues Christ's physical presence among us, while adoration of the Blessed Sacrament suspends the consecration of the Mass, stretching it out into hours, days, months, and years. We naturally desire to leave a part of ourselves to our loved ones. We send photos, solemnly pass on a cherished memento, or give a baby a family name. Soldiers used to carry a locket holding a few strands of their wife's or girlfriend's hair. We need to be close, physically close, to those we love in concrete, tangible ways. Jesus desired the same, and, not being constrained by the limitations of human nature, He did the same, and more. He has left us Himself! That dogma processing down the street is a person! And that dogma behind the golden doors of the parish's tabernacle is the same person! So bend that body low and set that heart on fire, for the Saving Victim opens wide the gate of heaven to all below. We stand as close to Christ in the Holy Eucharist as the Apostles ever did on Mount Tabor. Lord of the Eucharist, we venerate You with heads bowed, as the old form of worship gives way to the new. With faith providing for what fails the senses, we honor the Begetter and the Begotten, loving back at what loved us first, apprentices in the school of love.

The body of Christ. Corpus Christi ~ The Solemnity. Sunday 19th June 2022. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/vikki-semple/message

My homily for the Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ (Corpus Christi), Year C. This was preached during my sabbatical leave at a location outside my usual preaching locations. This particular occasion was a 5pm Sunday evening Mass. The readings proclaimed were Genesis 14:18-20; 1 Corinthians 11:23-26; Luke 9:11-17. Today's psalm is Psalm 109: "You are a priest for ever, in the line of Melchizedek." "Faithful to the Lord's command, the Church has gathered to celebrate Eucharist in memory of him. Each time Eucharist is celebrated we receive God's very self, and are transformed more and more into that which we receive, the Body of Christ, and nourished for the mission of proclaiming the Lord's Death and Resurrection."

“Take it; this is my body.” Then he took a cup, gave thanks, and gave it to them, and they all drank from it. He said to them, “This is my blood of the covenant, which will be shed for many.”  Mark 14:22a-24 (Year B Gospel)Happy Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity of Jesus Christ, our Lord and God!  What a Gift we celebrate today!The Eucharist is everything.  It's all things, the fullness of life, eternal salvation, mercy, grace, happiness, etc.  Why is the Eucharist all this and so much more?  Simply put, the Eucharist IS God.  Period.  Therefore, the Eucharist is all that God is.In his beautiful traditional hymn, Adoro te Devote, St. Thomas Aquinas writes, “I devoutly adore You, O hidden Deity, truly hidden beneath these appearances.  My whole heart submits to You, and in contemplating You, it surrenders itself completely.  Sight, touch, taste are all deceived in their judgment of You, but hearing suffices firmly to believe…”  What a glorious statement of faith in this wondrous gift.This statement of faith reveals that when we worship before the Eucharist, we worship God Himself hidden under the appearance of bread and wine.  Our senses are deceived.  What we see, taste and feel do not reveal the reality before us.  The Eucharist is God.Throughout our lives, if we were raised Catholic, we were taught reverence for the Eucharist.  But “reverence” is not enough.  Most Catholics revere the Eucharist, meaning, we genuflect, kneel, and treat the Sacred Host with respect.  But it's important to ponder a question in your heart.  Do you believe the Eucharist is God Almighty, the Savior of the world, the second Person of the Most Holy Trinity?  Do you believe deeply enough to have your heart moved with love and profound devotion every time you are before our divine Lord present before us under the veil of the Eucharist?  When you kneel do you fall down prostrate in your heart, loving God with your whole being?Perhaps this sounds like it's a bit excessive.  Perhaps simple reverence and respect is enough for you.  But it's not.  Since the Eucharist is God Almighty, we must see Him there with the eyes of faith in our soul.  We must profoundly adore Him as the angels do in Heaven.  We must cry out, “Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord God Almighty.”  We must be moved to the deepest of worship as we enter into His divine presence.Ponder the depth of your faith in the Eucharist today and strive to renew it, worshiping God as one who believes with your whole being.I devoutly adore You, O hidden Deity, truly hidden beneath these appearances.  My whole heart submits to You, and in contemplating You, it surrenders itself completely.  Sight, touch, taste are all deceived in their judgment of You, but hearing suffices firmly to believe.  Jesus, I trust in You.Source of content: catholic-daily-reflections.comCopyright © 2022 My Catholic Life!

"He fed them with the finest wheat and satisfied them with honey from the rock." Until the Lord comes again, may we be nourished and satisfied in the Eucharist.

What makes Mass, Mass?  What is the most important part of Mass?  Some may say Holy Communion, but actually that isn't the most important part.  We can go to Mass without receiving Holy Communion and it still is Mass...

"This is my blood of the covenant, which will be shed for many." The Eucharist is Jesus' promise of eternal life, a covenant with us that was ratified by his blood.

In today’s podcast, Fr. Javier del Castillo shares a reflection on the mystery of the Eucharist, the memorial of Christ’s sacrifice of infinite love, that we can use for our prayer as we celebrate and contemplate today the beautiful gift of the Body and Blood of Christ (Corpus Christi). Saint Josemaria explains: “Eternal happiness begins now for the Christian who is comforted with the definitive manna of the Eucharist. This is the Good News. News, because it speaks to us of a deep love which we never could have dreamed of. Good, because there is nothing better than uniting ourselves to God, the greatest Good of all. It is Good News, because in an inexplicable way it gives us a foretaste of heaven” (Christ is Passing By, no. 152).

"Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in me and I in him. Just as the living Father sent me and I have life because of the Father, so also the one who feeds on me will have life because of me." In the Eucharist, we are united in Christ Jesus, filled with the Holy Spirit, and sent to bear fruit.

June 23, 2019 homily of Fr. Matt Lowry for the Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ (Corpus Christi). Jesus is the Word and has power over words, so that when He says, "This is my Body," He becomes present so that we can adore, receive, and become more and more like Him.

My homily for the Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ (Corpus Christi), Year C, as preached during the 5.30pm Saturday evening in Sacred Heart Cathedral, Hamilton. During the Mass we celebrate the First Communion for some young members of our parish community. The readings were Genesis 14:18-20; 1 Corinthians 11:23-26; Luke 9:11-17. "We when receive the Body and Blood of Christ we are opening ourselves to God empowering us to become more and more what we have received, i.e. the Body of Christ in the world. It is a dangerous thing we do when we receive the Body and Blood of Christ because God's purpose will have a hold on us and we will be transformed by God as God sees fit."

The Feast of the Body and Blood of Christ - Corpus Christi. "Some things are worth believing including the Eucharist. Why should be believe and what should we do about it? We can live and learn."

“Take it; this is my body.” Then he took a cup, gave thanks, and gave it to them, and they all drank from it. He said to them, “This is my blood of the covenant, which will be shed for many.”  Mark 14:22a-24Happy Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity of Jesus Christ, our Lord and God!  What a Gift we celebrate today!The Eucharist is everything.  It’s all things, the fullness of life, eternal salvation, mercy, grace, happiness, etc.  Why is the Eucharist all this and so much more?  Simply put, the Eucharist IS God.  Period.  Therefore, the Eucharist is all that God is.In his beautiful traditional hymn, “Adoro te Devote,” St. Thomas Aquinas writes, “I devoutly adore You, O hidden Deity, truly hidden beneath these appearances.  My whole heart submits to You, and in contemplating You, it surrenders itself completely.  Sight, touch, taste are all deceived in their judgment of You, but hearing suffices firmly to believe…”  What a glorious statement of faith in this wondrous gift.This statement of faith reveals that when we worship before the Eucharist, we worship God Himself hidden under the appearance of bread and wine.  Our senses are deceived.  What we see, taste and feel do not reveal the reality before us.  The Eucharist is God.Throughout our lives, if we were raised Catholic, we were taught reverence for the Eucharist.  But “reverence” is not enough.  Most Catholics reverence the Eucharist, meaning, we genuflect, kneel, and treat the Sacred Host with respect.  But it’s important to ponder a question in your heart.  Do you believe the Eucharist is God Almighty, the Savior of the world, the second Person of the Most Holy Trinity?  Do you believe deeply enough to have your heart moved with love and profound devotion every time you are before our divine Lord present before us under the veil of the Eucharist?  When you kneel do you fall down prostrate in your heart, loving God with your whole being?Perhaps this sounds like it’s a bit excessive.  Perhaps simple reverence and respect is enough for you.  But it’s not.  Since the Eucharist is God Almighty, we must see Him there with the eyes of faith in our soul.  We must profoundly adore Him as the angels do in Heaven.  We must cry out, “Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord God Almighty.”  We must be moved to the deepest of worship as we enter into His divine presence.Ponder the depth of your faith in the Eucharist today and strive to renew it, worshiping God as one who believes with your whole being.I devoutly adore You, O hidden Deity, truly hidden beneath these appearances.  My whole heart submits to You, and in contemplating You, it surrenders itself completely.  Sight, touch, taste are all deceived in their judgment of You, but hearing suffices firmly to believe.  Jesus, I trust in You.

On this episode of Catholic Forum, after a brief introduction, the Gospel for the Solemnity of the Body and Blood of Christ (Corpus Christi), and a musical selection from the CD, Catholic Treasures, we are joined by Ms. Hillary Byrnes, Director of Religious Liberty and Associate General Counsel of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB). June 22 is the first day of Religious Freedom Week, a week set aside for Catholics are encouraged to pray and act each day for religious freedom. Father Rich Jasper will tell us about another Modern Day Witness.

This Sunday the Church celebrates the Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ (Corpus Christi) when “we come together to consider the depths of our Lord’s love for us, which has led him to stay with us, hidden under the appearances of the Blessed Sacrament” (St. Josemaria Escriva; Christ is Passing By, no. 150). Present under the property of bread and wine, the Church believes the Eucharist is fully the body, blood, soul and divinity of Jesus Christ. In this podcast, Fr. Peter Armenio shares a reflection to help us pray and go deeper in our understanding of the Eucharist and our call to be living monstrances, the sacred vessels in which the Blessed Sacrament is exposed for veneration. On the Feast of Corpus Christi, it is a common practice in many Catholic churches to hold a Eucharistic procession following Mass. This procession is symbolic of our work as modern day apostles. We are each called to be a living monstrance, bringing the light of Christ into every aspect of our life: our family, our work place, our social gatherings, etc. The Eucharist is a source of grace and love, through which we are brought together as one in the body of Christ. Like the saints, Eucharistic devotion should be a common trait in our pursuit of holiness. On this solemnity, we can make the resolution to spend time regularly in front of the Blessed Sacrament— a powerful encounter with Christ through which we receive the grace to be a witness in the world. ______________________________________________________________ THANK YOU FOR LISTENING!

Parochial Vicar, Father Ian Bozant, delivers the homily for the Feast of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ (Corpus Christi).

Scripture Readings: http://www.usccb.org/bible/readings/052916.cfm Summary: In the Gospel reading today, we read about Jesus and the miracle of feeding the multitude of 5,000 men with only five loaves and the two fish. As some theologians have observed -- In Luke's Gospel we see Jesus either going to a meal, at a meal, coming from a meal, or talking about a meal! The Eucharist meal is the central sacrament that is prefigured by these various "meal" events in the Gospels. Just as in the miracle of the feeding of the crowds, so the Eucharistic miracle recognized as the continual feeding of Christians (both in the early church and today).

The Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ (Corpus Christi); Homily by Fr. Sean Prince; Given at Immaculate Conception Catholic Church, Hampton, VA

Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ (Corpus Christi). These readings remind us that this was not only disconcerting to us; but to many of the people who heard it from Jesus as well. But what does this mean? (Preached on Sunday, June 22, 2014, St. Paul the Apostle Church, New York City)

On this weeks programme John is joined by Paul Glennon who is a deacon of the Dublin archdiocese ordained on June 1st in Maynooth. Paul shares his faith journey with us on the feast of Corpus Christi. We also have some reflections on the feast as well as links to reflections for the gospel of the day.

Homily given at the 8:45 a.m. Mass on Sunday, June 2, 2013, the Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ (Corpus Christi), by Fr. Ed Fride, Pastor, Christ the King Catholic Church. The Eucharistic Lord Jesus is the center of our lives. People in Jesus' time, as people today, had a difficult time accepting the Real Presence of Jesus in the Eucharist. They didn't understand how He could give them His Body and Blood to eat, and so they walked away (John 6:66). If we don't understand how Jesus is going to do something that He says He wants to do, we need to simply ask for more faith and trust Him. Keyword: Eucharist, Corpus Christi, trust

Solemnity of the Body and Blood of Christ "Corpus Christi" with Fr. Daniel Kelley, pastor of St. Joseph Catholic Church in Arlington, TX Today we remember in a special way the gift of the Holy Eucharist, first given to us by Jesus at the Last Supper. This is a gift that we celebrate weekly, some of us even daily—Christ’s Body and Blood given for our salvation and for our nourishment. We are so familiar with it that every now and then we need a reminder of how profound a gift it is. So let us give thanks and praise to God especially today for this great gift of the Eucharist. St. Joseph Catholic Church is located at 1927 SW Green Oaks Blvd in Arlington, Texas a suburb in the middle of the Dallas Fort Worth Metroplex.
