June 6, 2021 - The Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ/ El Cuerpo y la Sangre de Cristo Dear Parishioners:

Happy the Feast of “Corpus Christi - The Body and Blood of Christ”

---The Year of the Eucharist started June 2020 and continues through June 2021. In his Pastoral Letter, “The Work of Redemption: Eucharistic Belief and Practice in the Archdiocese of Seattle,” Archbishop Etienne encourages us to grow our understanding and experience of the Eucharist in this special year. The Year of the Eucharist ends on this weekend June 5th & 6th, the Solemnity of Corpus Christi. Archbishop Etienne has celebrated a special Corpus Christi Vigil Mass on June 5th at St. James Cathedral to mark the end of the Year of the Eucharist.

---In our Catholic understanding, Eucharist is not a theological concept but is a living person, and his name is Jesus. Our Eucharistic liturgy proclaims the one bond of life between God and his people. Just as blood that flows outward from the heart and unites all the bodily members in one flow of life, so too are we united intimately with God through the precious body and blood of Jesus. The very nature of the Eucharist implies a bond with God and with the community.

This Feast Day reminds us of the “source of nourishment” that we receive from the Lord everyday or at least once a week in our gathering to celebrate Eucharist. What a truly “special gift” that we have in Jesus Christ who offers us the opportunity to share in “His Divine Life” and to be formed into “His Body”. May each of us set aside a special moment on this Feast Day or this coming week to give thanks and acknowledge this special moment to be in the presence of our Lord.

---Mindful of forming the here as a Parish Community of St. Gabriel, we also connect with our own local Church, the Archdi- ocese of Seattle, in our common Ministries to the faithful and larger community. In the Annual Catholic Appeal Campaign 2021, we are undertaking is part of this support of 60 different ministries in Archdiocese.

“A deep word of thanks” to the many families who have pledged and turned in your commitment envelopes to the Parish and Archdioce- san Office to support the Annual Catholic Appeal 2021 again this year. We’re closer to our parish goal; so, your continue supports are as the critical testimony of the commitment for us to be “Church” today in our time. If you didn’t have an opportunity of filling your commit- ment envelop, please join with many of your parishioners to pledge toward our parish goal.

---Congratulation to newly Ordained Transitional Deacon John Depalma.

Transitional Deacon Ordinations - A transitional deacon is a seminary student in the process of becoming ordained a priest. They serve as a deacon for one year and are then ordained by the archbishop as a priest.

--Saturday - June 5th, 11:00 AM - seminarian John DePalma - At St. Benedict Parish, Seattle - By Bishop Daniel Mueggenborg. This event is closed to the public. All are invited to join the livestream at www.parish.stbens.net.

May the special Feast of the Body and Blood of Christ remind us of God’s special blessing for us and all our families through this special gift of the Eucharist we receive and share with other every day.

Christ Peace, Fr. Phuong Hoang

The Solemnity of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus falls on the 19th day after Pentecost (a Friday), and the Feast of the Immaculate Heart of the Blessed Virgin Mary follows on the next day. If you’ve heard of devotions to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary but aren’t quite sure what they’re all about, read on for a brief introduction and a few ideas for what your family might do.

Devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus Writers as early as St. Justin (second century) and St. Pope Gregory the Great (seventh century) drew on John 19:34-35 as a metaphor for the divine graces that flow from the heart of the crucified Jesus: “But when they came to Jesus and saw that he was already dead, they did not break his legs, but one soldier thrust his lance into his side, and immediately blood and water flowed out.”

Later spiritual writers, including St. Bernard of Clairvaux (twelfth century) and St. Gertrude the Great (thirteenth century), along with the preaching of Dominican and Franciscan friars, further developed and popularized devotion to the heart of Jesus.

But it was the visions of St. Margaret Mary Alacoque over a period of eighteen months between 1673 and 1675 that eventually prompted formal, universal devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus throughout the Church. Jesus appeared to her in these visions, mourning the indifference of hu- manity to his great love for them. He asked her (and by extension all the faithful) to make up for this indifference by her own love, especially by the practice of lovingly receiving Holy Eucha- rist on the first Friday of every month, and devoting an hour to every Thurs- day, during which she was to meditate on his agony in the garden of Gethsemane. Moreover, he asked for a feast to be instituted in honor of his Sacred Heart, a request that was fulfilled seventy- five years after St. Margaret Mary’s death.

The saint’s visions came at a time when Calvinism and Jansenism was spreading throughout Europe; these doctrines emphasized the judgment of God, and preached that some people are predestined to eternal damnation. Devotion to the Sacred Heart was widely embraced among Catholics, who found comfort in its message of Christ’s love and mercy.

Devotion to the Immaculate Heart of Mary Grounded in several references to Mary’s heart in the Scriptures (Luke 2:19, 2:35, 2:51), devotion to the heart of Mary was initially devel- oped by St. Anselm and St. Bernard of Clairvaux in the twelfth century; later, St. Bernardine of Siena (fifteenth century) became known as the “Doctor of the Heart of Mary” thanks to his extensive writing on her heart. St. John Eudes (seventeenth century) renewed the devotion, and has been called the father of the devotion in its modern form.

The devotion got a boost from the visions of St. Catherine Laboure in 1830 when Mary revealed to her the image of the Miraculous Medal, as well as the visions of three children in Fatima, Portugal, in 1917. Our Lady of Fatima told the children that “to save poor sinners, God wishes to establish in the world devotion to my Immaculate Heart.” In a later vision to one of the children (Lucia), Mary called for the faith- ful to devote the first Saturday of every month to confession, receiving Holy Communion, and reciting five decades of the Rosary. https://teachingcatholickids.com/celebrate-the-feasts-of-the-sacred-heart-of-jesus-and-the-immaculate-heart-of-mary/ June 6, 2021 - The Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ/ El Cuerpo y la Sangre de Cristo OUR LADY STAR OF THE SEA SCHOOL
