THE MOST BLESSED SACRAMENT
Today's feast - Corpus Christi - is in honor of the
Blessed Sacrament - the Body and Blood of Jesus sacrificed at Mass for our salvation and given in Communion
for our eternal life.
The Blessed Sacrament is the Heart of Christian life.
For us Catholics, all our faith and hope leads us to Mass
and comes from Mass. From the time we make our First
Communion,
we
return
continually to Jesus, the Source
of our life, for Him to nourish us
by His Body and Blood.
So, every Sunday is a
celebration of the Body of Christ
- Corpus Christi - because every
Sunday the whole Church
gathers around the altar to enter
into the sacrifice of Jesus and to
share His Food.
Today's celebration merely highlights the Eucharistic
reality of our lives. The Corpus Christi Procession at 1:15
PM is designed to strengthen our awareness of the
Eucharistic Christ Who is present on our altar and in our
tabernacle. In the Procession, the Body of Christ will be
carried through the parish - Jesus Himself passing
through our streets.
We will also be making four stops - at houses prepared
with an altar. At these stops, we will read from
the Bible - so that Jesus can speak to our neighborhood.
We will pray before the Lord - for it is by His Body and
Blood that the grace of God is given us.
We have given various Themes to the Four Altars of
Repose. The First will be Pentecost. Here we will pray
for an outpouring of the Holy Spirit. The Second will be
Fatima, where we will place all of our problems before the
intercession of our Mother. The Third will be Martha &
Mary, where we will pray for our Youth - May they know
Jesus, the Bread of Life. The Fourth Altar will be The
Blind Man/Zaccheus. Here we will pray for a New
Evangelization. Finally, back in the church, the Reading
will be The Great Commission. And Benediction will be
given - for the Eucharistic Lord to bless us.
Come join in the Procession.
rd
This coming Friday, June 23 , is the Feast of the Sacred
Heart of Jesus. This Feast also has a Eucharistic theme,
since in the apparitions of Jesus to St. Margaret Mary,
Jesus called for more frequent Communion, adoration of
the Eucharist, and prayers made in reparation for the
abuses made to the Blessed Sacrament. When you
come into the presence of the Lord in the Eucharist, you
come to His Heart. The Blessed Sacrament reveals to us
the love of the Heart of Jesus.
Come adore the Heart of Christ.

LE TRÈS SAINT SACREMENT
La Fête d'aujourd'hui - la Fête-Dieu: le Corps du
Christ - est une Fête en l'honneur du Saint-Sacrement le Corps et le Sang du Christ, sacrifiés sur l'autel chaque
jour pour notre salut, lesquels nous sont donnés en Sainte
Communion pour notre vie éternelle.
Le Saint-Sacrement est le cœur de la vie Chrétienne.
Pour nous Catholiques, toute notre foi et notre espérance
nous conduisent à la Messe et sortent de la Messe. Dès
l'heure que nous faisons notre Première Communion,
nous retournons continuellement à
Jésus, la Source de notre vie, car Il
nous nourrit et nous fortifie de Son
propre Corps et Sang.
Ainsi, chaque dimanche est la
célébration du Corps du Christ Corpus Christi - car chaque
dimanche l'Église entière se
rassemble autour de l'autel pour
entrer dans le sacrifice de Jésus et
pour partager Sa Nourriture.
La célébration d'aujourd'hui ne fait que souligner la
réalité Eucharistique de nos vies. La Procession du
Corps du Seigneur à 1h00 PM est désignée à nous
fortifier dans notre conscience du Christ Eucharistique Qui
est toujours présent sur notre autel et dans notre
tabernacle. Dans la Procession, le Corps du Christ sera
porté de par la paroisse - Jésus Même passera de par
nos rues.
Aussi, nous allons faire quatre arrêts - il y aura quatre

maisons préparées avec un Autel de Reposoire. Dans
ces arrêts, nous lirons de la Bible - afin que Jésus
S'adresse à notre quartier. Nous élèverons des prières
devant le Seigneur - car c'est par Son Corps et Son Sang
que la grâce de Dieu nous est donnée.
Nous acons donné des Thèmes aux Reposoires. Le
Premier sera la Pentecôte - où nous allons prier pour une
effusion du Saint-Esprit. Le Deuxième sera Fatima, nous
allons mettre tous nos problèmes devant l'intercession de
notre Mère. Le Troisième sera Marthe et Marie, où nous
allons prier pour nos jeunes, qu'ils connaissent Jésus, le
Pain de Vie. Le Quatrième Reposoire sera L'Aveigle et
Zachée.
Ici nous prierons pour la Nouvelle
Évangélisation. Enfin, de retour dans l'église, la Lecture
sera Le Grand Envoi. Nous donnerons la Bénédiction que le Seigneur Eucharistique nous bénisse.
Venez marcher dans la Procession.
Ce vendredi prochain est la Fête du Sacré Cœur de
Jésus. Cette Fête aussi porte un thème Eucharistique,
parce que, dans les apparitions de Jésus à Ste. Marguérite Marie, Jésus demandait la Communion plus
fréquente, adoration de l'Eucharistie, et prières faites en
réparation pour les abus donnés au très Saint Sacrement.
Quand vous venez devant le St-Sacrement, vous venez à
Son Cœur, leQuel a souffert pour vous et a répandu Son
Amour pour vous. Le Saint-Sacrement nous révèle
l'amour infini du Cœur de Jésus. Messe haïtienne vendredi, 23 juin à 7h30 PM. Venez adorez le Cœur du
Christ.

EL SANTÍSIMO SACRAMENTO
La fiesta de hoy - Corpus Christi - es una Fiesta en
honor del Santísimo Sacramento - el Cuerpo y la Sangre
de Jesús sacrificados en el altar en cada Misa por nuestra
salvación y dados a nosotros en Comunión para la vida
eterna.
El Santísimo Sacramento es el corazón de la vida
cristiana. Para nosotros Católicos, todo nos conduce a la
Misa y todo viene de la Misa. Desde nuestra Primera
Comunión, volvemos a Jesús, la Fuente de nuestra vida,
para que nos alimente, nos fortalezca,
nos nutra con Su propio Cuerpo y
Sangre.
Por eso, cada domingo es una
celebración del Cuerpo de Cristo,
porque cada domingo la Iglesia
entera se congrega alrededor del
altar para entrar en el sacrificio de
Jesús y para compartir Su Comida.
La celebración de hoy subraya la
realidad Eucarística de nuestras
vidas. La Procesión a la 1:00 de la tarde tiene como meta
fortalecer nuestra consciencia del Cristo Eucarístico
Quien está siempre presente en nuestro altar y en
nuestro tabernáculo. En la Procesión, el Cuerpo de
Cristo Se llevará por la parroquia -Jesús Mismo pasará
por nuestras calles.
También, vamos a hacer cuatro paradas - en casas
preparadas con un altar. En estas paradas - leeremos

de la Biblia - de manera que Jesús le hable al vecindario. Levantaremos peticiones ante el Señor - porque es
por Su Cuerpo y Sangre que la gracia de Dios se nos da.
Hemos escogidos temas para cada parada. El Primer
Altar será el Pentecostés. Aquí oraremos por una nueva
efusión del Espíritu Santo. El Segundo será Fátima,
donde vamos a poner nuestros problemas ante la
intercesión de nuestra Madre.. El Tercero será Marta y
María, donde vamos a orar por nuestros jóvenes, para
que conozcan a Jesús, el Pan de Vida. El Cuarto Altar
será el Ciego y Zaqueo. Aquí oraremos por la Nueva
Evangelización.
Por fin, de regreso en la iglesia, la
Lectura será el Gran Envío. Daremos la Bendición - que
el Señor Eucarístico nos bendiga.
Ven a la Procesión.
Este viernes es la Fiesta del Sagrado Corazón de
Jesús. Esta Fiesta también lleva un tema Eucarístico,
porque en Sus apariciones a Santa Margarita María,
Jesús pidió la Comunión más frecuente, la adoración de
la Eucaristía, y oraciones hechas en reparación de los
abusos hechos al Santo Sacramento. Cada vez que tú
vengas en la presencia del Señor en la Eucaristía, tú
llegas a Su Corazón, el Cual ha tanto sufrido por ti y ha
derramado Su amor por ti. El Santísimo Sacramento nos
revela el amor del Corazón de Jesús.
Ven a adorar el Corazón de Jesús.
