Jesus’ taking on flesh and dwelling among us is the greatest way that God could reveal himself to the world. What better way than for God to become one of us, so that living among us, we might better know Him, our one true God! This Sunday, the Church celebrates the Solemnity of the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ; or as it is known in Latin, Corpus Christi. Through this special feast, the Church recognizes, in a very solemn way, the Real Presence of Jesus in the bread and wine of the Eucharist. Pope Urban IV, in 1264, instituted the Solemnity of Corpus Christi to be observed on the Thursday after Trinity Sunday as a feast for the entire Roman Catholic Church. While the institution of the Eucharist is celebrated on Holy Thursday, the liturgy of Holy Thursday also commemorates Christ's washing of the disciples' feet, the institution of the priesthood, and the agony in the Garden of Gethsemane. So many other events take place on Holy Thursday that detract our attention on the the institution of the Eucharist. For this reason, the Feast of Corpus Christi was established to create a feast focused solely on the Holy Eucharist. It was also to be celebrated on Thursday in keeping with the Thursday observance of the Last Supper. Corpus Christi was also observed as one of the ten original Holy Days of Obligation in the Roman Catholic Church. Although they are still solemnly celebrated, most of the original Holy Days no longer carry the obligation to attend mass. Also, Corpus Christi, as the Feast of the Ascension of the Lord, are now celebrated on Sunday. In some countries, such as Poland, Corpus Christi is still traditionally observed on the Thursday following Trinity Sunday. It is also recognized as a national holiday. During my seminary days in Poland, I was privileged to partake in some pretty spectacular celebrations of Corpus Christi. In the city of Poznan, where our seminary was located, Corpus Christi would begin at the cathedral. Then, with thousands of people in attendance, the Eucharistic procession moved through the city streets stopping at four altars along the route and continued until it reached the city square. At each of the altars the Gospel passages pertaining to the Eucharist, as is written by Matthew, Mark, Luke and John respectively, are proclaimed. The procession concludes with a solemn benediction. Doors and windows of residences and businesses were decorated along the path. The celebration culminated with an outdoor Mass in the city square. The purpose of Corpus Christi is to celebrate our faith in the Real Presence of Jesus in the Eucharist. The Roman Catholic Church has held this belief of Jesus’ Real Presence in the Eucharist from the beginning. Today, most Christian churches do not hold that belief as we do. Many believe the bread and wine are simply symbols that remind us of Jesus. Corpus Christi is our opportunity to uphold our belief that the Eucharist is the real Body and Blood of Christ, and to honor Christ’s presence among us in the Eucharist. On Friday, June 19, the Church celebrates the Feast of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Our parish will join in the international Rosary Relay on this day. The rosary will be prayed for 24 hours for the sanctification of priests as it is passed on to the various par- ticipating churches throughout the world. At 9:30am it will be our time to keep the prayer going. We will receive the rosary from Christ the King Cathedral in Botswana, South Africa, and then we will pass it on to the Sisters of Divine Grace in Boise, Idaho. Please join us!

  • HLOND, Augustus Joseph, Cardinal and Primate of Poland, Founder of the Society of Christ, Servant of God
    HLOND, Augustus Joseph, Cardinal and Primate of Poland, founder of the Society of Christ, Servant of God. Born 5 July 1881 at Brzęczkowice, a small village in Upper Silesia, then under Prussia. He was the second of eleven children, four of whom became Salesians of Don Bosco. His father, Jan, worked on the railway and his mother Maria Imiela was a housewife. His parents passed on to him a deep attachment to Christian values, cultivating a special devotion to Our Lady, and preserving a healthy attachment to Polish traditions. 1. After completing elementary school at Zawodzie (Katowice), he began to attend the secondary school in Mysłowice (Katowice) which he then left at 12 years of age, together with his brother Ignatius, to go to Italy attracted by the reputation of Don Bosco. In October 1893, he was accepted into the College of Turin-Valsalice where he was able to continue his secondary studies; there with other young Poles he founded the Association of St Stanislaus Kostka. A year later he was transferred to the Salesian house of Lombriasco (Turin), where he continued his studies. During these years of secondary schooling in the Salesian Colleges his desire to enter the Salesian Society matured. In October 1896 he was accepted into the Salesian Novitiate in Foglizzo Canavese (Turin) and on 12 November received the clerical habit from the hands of the Rector Major, Blessed Michael Rua; it was he the following year who was present when he took his perpetual vows on 3 October. His intellectual gifts and human qualties led the superiors to send him to Rome to the Gregorian University where he attended the lectures of, among others, Fathers G.

  • Religious Community Facts
    RELIGIOUS COMMUNITY FACTS DID YOU KNOW? For over 25 years, the Franciscan Sisters of the Sacred Heart held their annual garage sale with proceeds to their mission activity in Brazil, moving reusable trash to renewable treasures. The Institute of the Blessed Virgin Mary was founded in Belgium in 1609 by a young Englishwoman named Mary Ward, was suppressed in 1631, yet continued to quietly grow through its educational endeavors throughout Europe, finally receiving full approval in 1877. The Mantellate Sisters Servants of Mary were founded in 1891 in Treppio, Italy (near Pistoia). This Year of Consecrated Life, 2015, is the 150th anniversary of the founding of the Sisters of St. Francis of Mary Immaculate in Joliet, also referred to as the Joliet Franciscans. They were the first group of Franciscan sisters incorporated in the State of Illinois, which was in 1874. 125 years ago, the Servants of the Holy Heart of Mary came to Bourbonnais from Paris, to minister in the infirmary at St. Viator’s College and within ten years founded a hospital and boarding school. During the years of 1885 to 1900, Chicago became an important Czech Center for the Benedictine Sisters. The founders of St. Procopius Abbey and Sacred Heart Monastery, following the model of Saints Benedict and Scholastica, were brother and Sister. Both Abbot Nepomuk Jaeger and Mother Nepomuk Jaeger had a famous Czech saint, John Nepomucene, as their patron. The masterpiece poem by Jesuit Gerard Manley Hopkins titled “The Wreck of Deutschland” was dedicated to five Franciscan Sisters, Daughters of the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary, who left their Motherhouse in Salzkotten, Germany to join 19 of their Sisters (later known as Wheaton Franciscans).
