Length of Time Needed Option 1: 20-30 minutes for the Saint portion (for the whole evening, which also includes a hymn, 1 hour, or if a meal or snacks are included: 1.5-1.75 hours) Option 2: 1 hour, if focusing solely on the Saint in an extended version, or, if a meal and snacks are included: 1.5-1.75 hours. Schedule of the Event This event could be done in 2 parts: first a Saint presentation, followed by a Hymn presentation, as outlined below. Or, you could extend part 1 and spend the whole time on the Saint, with fellowship and food. • Meal, with the whole community (optional, 30-45 minutes) • Part 1: Saint presentation & activity (20-30 minutes) • Break • Part 2: Hymn presentation (found in the Hymns section of the resources, 20-30 minutes) • Gather the whole community in the chapel for a testimony (5-7 minutes) • Closing prayer and blessing (5 minutes) • Snacks and fellowship (optional, and possible alternative to a meal, 15-30 minutes) Goal To inspire us to fall in love with Jesus in the Eucharist through the stories, witness, and imitation of the saints. Age level(s) Whole Community Review NA Preparation Opening prayer Proclamation St. Alphonsus was a Doctor of the Church, encouraged visits to the Blessed Sacrament, and witnessed a Eucharistic Miracle. Explanation Share St. Alphonsus’ story, using the attached script. Optionally, you could have someone dress up as St. Alphonsus and tell his story in the first person and answer questions. Application Attached Craft project: • Option 1: Eucharistic Miracle Monstrance Craft • Option 2: Journal Covers Other optional activities are attached. Celebration Closing prayer – you might use St. Alphonsus’ Spiritual Communion: “Spiritual Communion.” My Jesus, I believe you are really here in the Blessed Sacrament. 2 I love you more than anything in the world, and I hunger to feed on your body. But since I cannot receive Communion at this moment, feed my soul at least spiritually. I unite myself to you now as I do when I actually receive you. Never let me be parted from you. http://www.redemptorists.co.uk/news/news-items/180-the-eucharist-and- saint-alphonsus.html • If you are opting to do Part 2, take a break and then move to Part 2 of the event, using the lesson plan for teaching a hymn – you can choose from the many hymn options offered. • At the very end of the event, bring the whole community in the chapel for a testimony and closing prayer. If possible, have some social time after the closing prayer.

It also includes the “Spiritual Communion” prayer. Eucharistic Miracle Monstrance Craft outside Eucharistic Miracle Monstrance Craft inside Option 2: Decorate Journal Cover Because Saint Alphonsus’ encourages visits to the Blessed Sacrament and wrote about his visits, we are going to create/decorate journals, which you may use to record your visits to the Blessed Sacrament or your reflections during prayer. 5 8 page prayer booklet (can create a blank one or use the 8page Alphonsus prayer booklet pattern shown below.) Directions: Mountain-fold page lengthwise along dash-dotted line like a hot dog bun (includes solid black line) then unfold. Mountain-fold along dash dotted line in half widthwise like a hamburger bun and leave folded. Valley-fold each of the two loose ends back up to the fold (dashed lines will be inside the fold and page would look like a “w” viewed from the edge.) Open last two folds (back to hamburger fold). Cut solid black line. Grasp the hamburger fold (one side of the cut in each hand) and separate the cut (bringing the outsides together at the bottom), which will cause the original hot dog fold to fold (creates a + when viewed from the top.) Mountain fold the front and back to the outside of the booklet as all the other pages are eased into place inside the booklet. Another idea for a journal, but there are many other possibilities. Encourage your classroom students to write down their thoughts and feelings with a journal they create all on their own. These DIY crafts make a wonderful activity for showing kids how fun it is to write every day. These 25-page journals come with an imitation leather cover and cord lacing. 5" x 7" Makes 12. © OTC Oriental Trading DIY Journals Craft Kit #48/6771 $ 14.49 Makes 12 6 You Come Down from the Stars https://www.mamalisa.com/blog/italian-christmas-song-tu-scendi-dalle-stele-you-come-down-from-the-stars-2/ (English) You come down from the stars Tu scendi dalle stelle Oh King of Heavens, (Italian) Tu scendi dalle stelle And you come in a cave O Re del Cielo In the cold, in the frost.

  • Adoro Te Devote
    Adoro Te Devote Eucharistic Adoration in the Spirit of St Thomas Aquinas St Saviour’s Church, Dominick St (D1) Some of the best loved Eucharistic hymns - Adoro Te Devote, Tantum Ergo, Panis Angelicus - were written by one man, the Dominican Friar St. Thomas Aquinas. The Dominican Friars of St. Saviour's Priory, which has been in existence for nearly 800 years, will mark the 50th International Eucharistic Congress by inviting renowned preachers to explain the rich delights of these Eucharistic hymns, all in the presence of the Blessed Sacrament, exposed for our veneration. The preachers include Wojciech Giertych OP, the Pope's personal theologian; Paul Murray OP, a celebrated spiritual writer; John Harris OP, well-known for his ministry to young people; and Terence Crotty OP, a Scripture scholar. The evening events will also include music and silent adoration, and will conclude with the Office of Compline, sung by the Dominican community, and the ancient tradition of the Salve Regina procession. Finally, on Saturday, St Saviour's will host a day-long festival of Eucharistic adoration. Come and join us, as we contemplate the source and summit of our faith, 'in which Christ is received, the memory of His Passion is renewed, the soul is filled with grace, and the pledge of future glory is given to us' (St Thomas Aquinas).

  • Adoro Te Devote St Thomas Aquinas (1225 – 1274)
    Hymn Communion Adoro te devote St Thomas Aquinas (1225 – 1274) 1. Adoro te devote, latens Deitas, I devoutly adore You, O hidden Deity, Quæ sub his figuris vere latitas; Truly hidden beneath these appearances. Tibi se cor meum totum subjicit, My whole heart submits to You, Quia te contemplans totum deficit. And in contemplating You, it surrenders itself completely. 2. Visus, tactus, gustus in te fallitur, Sight, touch, taste are all deceived in their judgment of You, Sed auditu solo tuto creditur. But hearing suffices firmly to believe. Credo quidquid dixit Dei Filius; I believe all that the Son of God has spoken; Nil hoc verbo veritátis verius. There is nothing truer than this word of truth. 3. In cruce latebat sola Deitas, On the cross only the divinity was hidden, At hic latet simul et Humanitas, But here the humanity is also hidden. Ambo tamen credens atque confitens, Yet believing and confessing both, Peto quod petivit latro pœnitens. I ask for what the repentant thief asked. 4. Plagas, sicut Thomas, non intueor: I do not see the wounds as Thomas did, Deum tamen meum te confiteor. But I confess that You are my God. Fac me tibi semper magis credere, Make me believe more and more in You, In te spem habere, te diligere. Hope in You, and love You. 5. O memoriale mortis Domini! O memorial of our Lord's death! Panis vivus, vitam præstans homini! Living bread that gives life to man, Præsta meæ menti de te vívere, Grant my soul to live on You, Et te illi semper dulce sapere.

  • Hymns for Corpus Christi
    Hymns for Corpus Christi Introduction When Pope Urban IV instituted the feast of Corpus Christi in 1264 for the universal Church he commissioned St Thomas Aquinas to compose the texts for Mass and the Office. These included the hymns for the various hours of the Divine Office which are still sung to this day. One of the characteristics of all the hymns is that two verses, generally the last two, have been sung indepently of the whole text. For example, the last two verses of the hymn for Evening Prayer (Pange lingua) are familiar in their own right — Tantum ergo Sacramentum. In this document it has been indicated in the title for the Hymns. As well as St Thomas Aquinas’ original Latin texts English translations have also been provided. Where possible, two have been included. The first from one of the great translators of hymns in the 19th century; the second from James Quinn sj, who probably made the most important contribution to Catholic hymnody in these islands in the latter half of the 20th century. It is his translations which are used in the current Divine Office. Recently a collected edition of his hymns, Hymns for all seasons edited by Paul Inwood. has been published by Oregon Catholic Press (2017). A couple of additional texts have been included. Adoro te devote though not written for the Office of Corpus Christi it is understood originally to have been a private devotion of St Thomas Aquinas. O sacrum convivium is the Magnificat antiphon for Evening Prayer II and as well as an eloquent expression of the theology of the feast it is a text which has been set by many composers.
