Read OnlineChosen and SentJesus summoned his Twelve disciples and gave them authority over unclean spirits to drive them out and to cure every disease and every illness. The names of the Twelve Apostles are these… Matthew 10:1–2Imagine being one of the Twelve. When each of them first encountered our Lord, he could never have imagined what would unfold. Eleven of them would become the foundation upon which the Messiah built His Church. Their words and actions have been recorded and proclaimed throughout the world and will continue to be until the end of time. By God's will, they preached far and wide with divine authority. They celebrated the Holy Eucharist, transforming mere bread and wine into the Most Holy Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity, of the Lamb of God. Through the laying on of hands, they imparted the Holy Spirit in fullness. They worked miracles in Jesus' name, and most of them bore final witness to Christ by the shedding of their blood.The reason their lives were so fruitful for God's Kingdom is because they were chosen and sent by the Son of God. It was not their idea. They didn't construct their own plan for eternal salvation. They did not map out their futures and execute a vision according to their own will. Instead, they felt the gravity of the mission for which they were chosen and acted when sent by the Savior. Their obedience to the divine will opened the floodgates of Divine Mercy, and grace poured forth upon the world.When you consider your own life, what are your goals and ambitions? What plans have you made for the future? If we want to imitate the fruitfulness of the Apostles, then we are invited to discern for what God has chosen us and to be prepared to respond with generous obedience when He sends us.It's easy to come up with our own plans in life. We might want to save up money, succeed at work, have a family, form friendships, retire at a certain age, and enjoy many good things. Though all these can be good and might well be part of God's plan, we must not presume upon His will. With humility, we must continually seek His guidance, remain open to His promptings, and surrender our plans to the providence of the One who knows what will truly bear fruit for eternity.Reflecting on the radical change of life to which Jesus called the Twelve invites us to consider whether Jesus also desires a radical change in our own lives. Certainly, some aspects of our lives are good and holy. If married with children, God's will surely includes loving and caring for one's family. Within every vocation, however, there are ways in which we might be called to a new depth of conversion—a radical life of loving, serving, and building the Kingdom of God in ways we never imagined possible.By analogy, consider a person living in poverty who suddenly wins the largest lottery in history. Imagine, further, that the person is quite worldly. Such a fortune would radically change the direction of that person's life—likely not for the better.Though God does not promise us a material fortune, He desires to bestow upon us supernatural treasure of infinitely greater value. His Mercy is abundant—described by the saints as an ocean, vast and unfathomable, waiting to be poured out in its fullness upon all of creation. Through prayer and conversion, we open the floodgates, and God begins lavishing upon us the priceless treasure of grace. When this happens, our lives change—because God chooses us and then sends us on ever new and glorious missions.Reflect today on the spiritual truth that God has chosen you for some holy and sacred mission. It might not be glorious in the eyes of the world, but it will be glorious in Heaven. Be open. Beg for His grace. Accept your mission. Go wherever He sends you, knowing that you cannot, now, fathom all that God has in store for you. Most glorious God, You have chosen me for some definite purpose. You have called me by name and desire to send me forth to build up Your Kingdom on earth. I accept my calling and open myself to the abundance of grace You wish to bestow so that I may fulfill Your perfect will, doing unfathomable good for Your Kingdom to come. Jesus, I trust in You.  Image: Twelve apostles in church Chiesa di San Dalmazzo, by Enrico ReffoSource: Free RSS feed from divinemercy.life — Copyright © 2026 My Catholic Life! Inc.

The Feast of the Most Precious Blood of Our Lord Jesus Christ is celebrated annually on July 1st, a date fixed by Pope St. Pius X. The entire month of July is dedicated to the Precious Blood, focusing on Christ’s sacrifice on the cross, his resurrection, and the Eucharist. Origin: Instituted for the universal Church in 1849 by Blessed Pope Pius IX to mark his return from exile, later elevated in rank by Pope Pius XI in 1933. Significance: It honors the blood shed by Jesus for humanity's redemption, specifically focusing on the blood shed during the Passion and the blood/water that flowed from his side, as described in the Gospel. Liturgical Focus: It highlights the blood of the New Testament, the "fountain of salvation" that cleanses souls and is present on the altar during the Mass. Traditional Calendar: While not in the current Ordinary Form (Novus Ordo) calendar, it remains a major feast in the Traditional Latin Mass calendar on July 1st. Related Devotions: The month of July is traditionally dedicated to the Precious Blood, encouraging prayers like the Chaplet of the Precious Blood and the Litany of the Most Precious Blood. While the specific July 1st feast is focused on the Precious Blood itself, it is closely related to the Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ (Corpus Christi), which occurs on a different date based on the Easter cycle.

The Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of ChristReceiving Holy Communion is not a reward for good people, but food for pilgrims on the journey. Why does it seem like some people are changed and others are not at Mass? One word...receptivity. When people come to Mass, we can come out of sheer obligation, habit, we can come with distractions, and closed hearts. Yet, in celebrating the great feast of the bread of heaven, God invites us to come hungry. When our heart is open to God we never leave...unchanged.Scripture Readings for June 7, 2026Deuteronomy 8:2-3, 14-16Psalm 147:12-15, 19-201 Corinthians 10:16-17 John 6:51-58

Friends of the Rosary,Today is the Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ, known as Corpus Christi, a feast honoring the Real Presence of Jesus Christ in the Eucharist. It emphasizes the joy of the Eucharist, traditionally celebrated on the Thursday after Trinity SundayThe feast dates back to the 13th century. It was instituted following the Eucharistic visions of St. Juliana of Liège in Belgium and the Eucharistic miracle of Bolsena, Italy, where a consecrated host reportedly began bleeding.Pope Urban IV extended this celebration to the universal Church in 1264 and commissioned the renowned theologian St. Thomas Aquinas to compose special hymns and prayers for the feast day, including the Tantum Ergo and O Salutaris Hostia.The significance of the feast is clear. While Holy Thursday recalls the institution of the Eucharist at the start of the Passion, the Corpus Christi provides a dedicated, joyful occasion for the Church to focus solely on adoration, thanksgiving, and belief in transubstantiation.We celebrate this day with Eucharistic Processions. The Blessed Sacrament is placed in a monstrance and carried through the streets by the clergy, with the faithful walking alongside, praying, and singing. Celebrations often include solemn Exposition and Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament.For Catholics, the procession serves as a public declaration of faith and a visible reminder that Christ is with them in their daily lives.We rejoice in this expression of our Eucharistic faith and devotion in order to deepen our attachment to the unique event that transforms our lives: the Blessed Sacrament.[embed]https://youtu.be/WV7WQbdajJo?si=zhAVQj4tp1_AlJaJ[/embed][embed]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-5Xi-Brli0g[/embed]Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

The feast of the Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ, historically known as Corpus Christi, celebrates the Real Presence of Jesus in the Eucharist. Instituted in 1264 by Pope Urban IV, this commemoration emphasizes the transubstantiation of bread and wine into the body, blood, soul, and divinity of Jesus Christ. It is often marked by solemn processions, Eucharistic adoration, and special masses. The Feast is traditionally celebrated on the Thursday following Trinity Sunday (which is 60 days after Easter). Thursday was specifically chosen because it is the day of the week that Jesus instituted the Holy Eucharist at the Last Supper. In the USA, Canada, and many other countries, it is observed on the Sunday following Trinity Sunday. This adjustment or Sunday transfer is purely for pastoral reasons, making it easier for the faithful to attend Mass and participate in processions without taking time off during the workweek.

Homily from the Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ (Corpus Christi). To have the Real Presence in the Eucharist, one needs the Apostolic priesthood. Corpus Christi is an important feast for an important Reality. We know that Jesus was clear when He taught about His Body and Blood in the Eucharist...yet this true Presence requires the true ministerial priesthood that Jesus established with His Apostles. Christ's followers are divided, but He continues to desire our unity. Mass Readings from June 7, 2026: Deuteronomy 8:2-3, 14-16 Psalm 147:12-15, 19-201 Corinthians 10:16-17 John 6:51-58

Full Text of Readings The Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ Lectionary: 167 The Saint of the day is Blessed Franz Jägerstätter Blessed Franz Jägerstätter, an Austrian farmer executed for refusing to fight for Nazi Germany, is pictured in an undated photo. (CNS photo)  Saint of the Day for June 7 (May 20, 1907 – August 9, 1943) Blessed Franz Jägerstätter's Story Called to fight for his country as a Nazi soldier, Franz Jägerstätter eventually refused, and this husband and father of three daughters—Rosalie, Marie and Aloisia—was executed because of it. Born in St. Radegund in Upper Austria, Franz Jägerstätter lost his father during World War I and was adopted after Heinrich Jaegerstaetter married Rosalia Huber. As a young man, he loved to ride his motorcycle and was the natural leader of a gang whose members were arrested in 1934 for brawling. For three years he worked in the mines in another city and then returned to St. Radegund, where he became a farmer, married Franziska and lived his faith with quiet but intense conviction. In 1938, he publicly opposed the German Anschluss–annexation–of Austria. The next year he was drafted into the Austrian army, trained for seven months and then received a deferment. In 1940, Franz was called up again but allowed to return home at the request of the town's mayor. He was in active service between October 1940 and April 1941, but was again deferred. His pastor, other priests, and the bishop of Linz urged him not to refuse to serve if drafted. In February 1943, Franz was called up again and reported to army officials in Enns, Austria. When he refused to take the oath of loyalty to Hitler, he was imprisoned in Linz. Later he volunteered to serve in the medical corps but was not assigned there. During Holy Week Blessed Franz Jägerstätter wrote to his wife: “Easter is coming and, if it should be God's will that we can never again in this world celebrate Easter together in our intimate family circle, we can still look ahead in the happy confidence that, when the eternal Easter morning dawns, no one in our family circle shall be missing—so we can then be permitted to rejoice together forever.” He was transferred in May to a prison in Berlin. Challenged by his attorney that other Catholics were serving in the army, Franz responded, “I can only act on my own conscience. I do not judge anyone. I can only judge myself.” He continued, “I have considered my family. I have prayed and put myself and my family in God's hands. I know that, if I do what I think God wants me to do, he will take care of my family.” On August 8, 1943, Franz wrote to Fransizka: “Dear wife and mother, I thank you once more from my heart for everything that you have done for me in my lifetime, for all the sacrifices that you have borne for me. I beg you to forgive me if I have hurt or offended you, just as I have forgiven everything…My heartfelt greetings for my dear children. I will surely beg the dear God, if I am permitted to enter heaven soon, that he will set aside a little place in heaven for all of you.” Franz Jägerstätter was beheaded and cremated the following day. In 1946, his ashes were reburied in St. Radegund near a memorial inscribed with his name and the names of almost 60 village men who died during their military service. He was beatified in Linz on October 26, 2007. His “spiritual testament” is now in Rome's St. Bartholomew Church as part of a shrine to 20th-century martyrs for their faith. Blessed Franz's liturgical feast is celebrated on August 9. Want to learn more about Blessed Franz Jägerstätter? Click here!

Delivered by Christine Gunawan from the Parish of Saint Joseph Cathedral in the Archdiocese of Pontianak, Indonesia. Deuteronomy 8: 2-3.14b-16a; Rs psalm 147: 12-13.14-15.19-20; 1 Corinthians 10: 16-17; John 6: 51-58.WE ARE SUSTAINED BY THE BODY AND BLOOD OF CHRIST The theme for our meditation on this Sunday, Solemnityof the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ is: We are Sustained by the Body andBlood of Christ. The Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christinvites us to contemplate a profound truth: Christ does not only teach us froma distance. He gives Himself completely to us. In the Eucharist, Jesus becomesour food and drink so that we may have life in Him and continue our journeywith strength, hope, and love. In the Gospel, Jesus states frankly that His body, the flesh of the Son of Man, and Hisblood are the food we should eat. This reveals more than just His power toprovide material food, but a deeper gift. Just as people are nourishedphysically, Christ nourishes us spiritually through His Body and Blood. Humanshunger for many things: acceptance, peace, meaning, forgiveness, and love. Nogift from this world can fully satisfy our hunger. Only Christ can fulfill thedeepest longings of the human heart. The Eucharist reminds us that God understands ourweakness. We often become tired, discouraged, and burdened by life's struggles.At times we may feel inadequate in our vocation, family responsibilities,ministry, studies, or work. Yet Jesus does not leave us to rely solely on ourown strength. Every time we receive the Eucharist with faith, He shares His ownlife with us. His patience strengthens our impatience. His love heals ourwounded hearts. His courage sustains us when we feel afraid. The Eucharist is also a call to become what we receive.We receive the Body of Christ so that we may become the Body of Christ forothers. The bread that is broken for us challenges us to share ourselvesgenerously. The cup of salvation invites us to pour out our lives in service,compassion, and forgiveness. Nourished by Christ, we are sent to nourish othersthrough our words, presence, and acts of kindness. A father shared a story about how the daily and weeklyEucharist sustains him and his family. The burdens of life and theresponsibility of caring for his family are daily tasks that cannot beneglected. Therefore, every time he attends the Eucharist, he is given theopportunity to receive the Lord Jesus and bring Him into every situation andactivity in his life. Like that father, we often find that our strength isinsufficient. The Eucharist reminds us that we are not sustained by our ownefforts alone. We live by Christ himself. He feeds us so that we can continueour journey faithfully.Let us pray. In the name of the Father … Lord, Jesus, You give us Your Body andBlood as the food of eternal life. When we are weak, strengthen us. When we arediscouraged, renew our hope. When we are tempted to rely only on ourselves,remind us that You are always with us. May every Eucharist deepen our unionwith You and transform us into instruments of Your love for others. Glory tothe Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit ... In the name of the Father…

The solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of our Lord Jesus Christ is an annual opportunity to be reminded, and give God thanks, for the great mystery of the real presence of Christ in the Eucharist. Once again, we should be in awe of what has been given to us; in a manner which is far beyond our means to invent, larger than what our minds can understand, and deeper than our hearts can hold.

Full Text of ReadingsThe Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ Lectionary: 169The Saint of the day is Saint Thomas MoreSaint Thomas More's Story His belief that no lay ruler has jurisdiction over the Church of Christ cost Thomas More his life. Beheaded on Tower Hill, London, on July 6, 1535, More steadfastly refused to approve King Henry VIII's divorce and remarriage and establishment of the Church of England. Described as “a man for all seasons,” More was a literary scholar, eminent lawyer, gentleman, father of four children, and chancellor of England. An intensely spiritual man, he would not support the king's divorce from Catherine of Aragon in order to marry Anne Boleyn. Nor would he acknowledge Henry as supreme head of the Church in England, breaking with Rome, and denying the pope as head. More was committed to the Tower of London to await trial for treason: not swearing to the Act of Succession and the Oath of Supremacy. Upon conviction, More declared he had all the councils of Christendom and not just the council of one realm to support him in the decision of his conscience. Reflection Four hundred years later in 1935, Thomas More was canonized a saint of God. Few saints are more relevant to our time. In the year 2000, in fact, Pope John Paul II named him patron of political leaders. The supreme diplomat and counselor, he did not compromise his own moral values in order to please the king, knowing that true allegiance to authority is not blind acceptance of everything that authority wants. King Henry himself realized this and tried desperately to win his chancellor to his side because he knew More was a man whose approval counted, a man whose personal integrity no one questioned. But when Thomas More resigned as chancellor, unable to approve the two matters that meant most to Henry, the king had to get rid of him.
