Principal's message

Pope Leo XIV looks at the Blessed Sacrament in the monstrance a special symbol of the Feast of Corpus Christi.

On Sunday the Church celebrated the Feast of the Holy Body and Blood of Christ or Corpus Christi. It is a special feast when Catholics celebrate that Jesus is truly present in the Eucharist (Holy Communion)—not just a symbol, but really with us in the bread and wine at Mass.

It focuses on the gift Jesus gave at the Last Supper and reminds us that Jesus stays with us and feeds us spiritually. It is a joyful celebration of the heart of our faith

The Feast of Corpus Christi celebrates that Jesus is truly present with us in the Eucharist, and the Feast of the Sacred Heart (this Friday) celebrates how much Jesus loves us and gives Himself to us. The Eucharist flows from the Heart of Jesus.

Corpus Christi Prayer 

Loving Jesus,

Thank you for being with us in Holy Communion.

Thank you for feeding us with your love.

Help us to be kind,

to share with others,

and to see you in everyone we meet.

Stay close to us always.

Amen.
