CORPUS CHRISTI (Body and Blood of Christ) is a Eucharistic solemnity, or better, the solemn commemoration of the institution of that sacrament. It is, moreover, the Church’s official act of homage and gratitude to Christ, who by instituting the Holy Eucharist gave to the Church her greatest treasure. Holy Thursday, assuredly, marks the anniversary of the institution, but the commemoration of the Lord’s passion that very night suppresses the rejoicing proper to the occasion. Today’s observance, therefore, accents the joyous aspect of Holy Thursday. The Mass and the Office for the feast was edited or composed by St. Thomas Aquinas upon the request of Urban IV in the year 1264. It is unquestionably a classic piece of liturgical work, wholly in accord with the best liturgical traditions. . . It is a perfect work of art. Excerpted from The Church’s Year of Grace, Pius Parsch

CORPUS CHRISTI PRAYER A DAILY PRAYER TO ST JOSEPH Let us pray for the willingness to make present in our Hail, Guardian of the Redeemer, Spouse of the Blessed Virgin world the love of Christ shown to us in the Eucharist, Mary. To you God entrusted his only Son; in you Mary placed Lord Christ, we worship you living among us her trust; with you Christ became man. in the sacrament of your body and blood. May we offer to our Father in heaven a solemn pledge of Blessed Joseph, to us too, show yourself a father and guide us in undivided love. May we offer to our brothers and the path of life. Obtain for us grace, mercy, and courage, and sisters a life poured out in loving service of that defend us from every evil. Amen. kingdom where you live with the Father and the Holy Spirit one God for ever and ever. Amen
