Prayer is so much more that just “saying your prayers”

Prayer is a spiritual adventure!

Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ

John 6:51-58

“I am the living bread that came don from heaven; whoever eats this bread will live forever;

and the bread that I will give is my flesh for the life of the world.”

Those words should not disturb Catholics who grow up believing in the Real Presence of the Body and Blood of Jesus under the appearance of bread and wine after the words of Consecration of the priest, in Persona Christi. But for the multitude of people who were fed by Jesus after he prayed over a few loaves and fish, and who sought him out for more such food, the response of Je-sus that his flesh is bread for the life of the world must have been disturbing, maybe even repulsive. They did not understand Jesus that his “flesh” is who he is, what he does, what he says; that becoming his “flesh” in the world is the way to eternal life. St. John reports that, “As a result of this, many of his disciples returned to their former way of life and no longer accompanied him.” When we receive the Body and Blood of Jesus we have the responsibility to be the “flesh” of Jesus in the world, if we hope to live forever. Do we fully understand that? Do we do that? Or do we “return to our former way of life”?

“I am the living bread that came down from heaven; whoever eats this bread will live forever; and the bread that I will give is my flesh for the life of the world.”

Our Masses have resumed and we are so thankful to be able to gather and worship! There is no age restriction on attending Mass, only that you are in good health and not high risk. In keeping with the 6-foot social distancing guidelines, the maximum number of people allowed in the church is 75. For weekend Masses, we will offer 75 color coded tickets per Mass which will be available 8-6pm M-F from the ramp door entrance of church. If these pickup times do not work for you, call the Parish Office. Please pick up one ticket for each person in your household. You must have your ticket to be able to attend Mass.

We have combined the guidelines set by the State of Ken-tucky and our Diocese for those who choose to attend the Liturgy in person. It is the Church’s responsibility to protect every member as best we can and these guidelines are created out of love and re-spect for each of you. All attendees are required to wear masks with the exception

of children 3 years old and younger. If you are not comfortable, or children are not mature enough to wear a mask for the entire liturgy, you should continue to worship from home. We ask that you bring your own mask. If you do not have one, we will have one available for you outside of church.

Please use the side ramp door to enter the church and the front doors to exit.

Families are to be seated in the spaces marked throughout the sanctuary. Only every other pew will be utilized. The short pews on the sides will allow 2 people from the same household. Hos-pitality Ministers will help in guiding families to the appropriate seats which will be marked with a placard.

The cry room is not open for gathering. However, the restroom is available if needed. Only one person (unless family) is al-lowed in the cry room/restroom at a time. Others should wait outside the cry room door and maintain 6 feet between one another.

Because singing causes us to project our voices and therefore can propel the virus, the congregation is asked to refrain from singing. And to reduce risk, we will not use worship guides for the time being.

During the Our Father and Sign of Peace, please do not hold or shake hands with anyone outside of your family.

Offering baskets will be placed at the entrances to church. For the communion procession, a hospitality minister will dis-

miss one row at a time. Parishioners are asked to keep 6 feet between the person in front of you and keep your mask on until the person in front of you receives communion. At that time, the mask can be lowered and if the parishioner wishes, sanitize their hands before receiving the Eucharist. After consuming the Eucharist, we ask that you replace your mask over your face and you may sanitize your hands again before returning to your seat. Communion will be administered in the hands only.

For dismissal after church, hospitality ministers will dismiss each row beginning with the back of the church. Most everyone will be encouraged to exit through the front doors. However, those who need to use the side entrance will be able to use the ramp.

Are you interested in taking communion to those in your home who cannot attend Mass in person? Call the Parish Office at 270-683-5641 to sign up for training.

An Act of Spiritual Communion My Jesus, I believe that You are present in the Most Holy Sacra-ment. I love You above all things, and I desire to receive You into my soul. Since I cannot at this moment receive You sacramental-ly, come at least spiritually into my heart. I embrace You as if You were already there and unite myself wholly to You. Never permit

me to be separated from You. Amen.

San Romualdo (c. 950-1027) 19 de junio Romualdo fue el padre fundador de los monjes camaldu-lenses, imponiendo en ellos reglas más severas que las que san Benedicto había impuesto en su monasterio. Un hecho que transformó su vida fue el ver a su padre batir-se a duelo, dando muerte a otra persona. Puesto que el rey Otón III lo había nombrado Abad, renunció al cargo por considerarlo de mucho prestigio para él, porque lo único que deseaba era ser un simple monje dedicado a la contemplación y la vida ermitaña. Con este espíritu viajó por toda Italia erigiendo ermitas y fundando conven-tos. Su capacidad de conversión era notable, pues llegó a convencer a su mismo padre de que se hiciera monje. De profundo amor a Dios y de voluntad férrea, quiso ser mártir y pidió al papa su permiso para ir a predicar el Evangelio a Hungría, pero cada vez que lo intentaba se enfermaba, así comprendió que Dios deseaba que se estableciera en el monasterio y reformara la vida tan hol-gada de muchos monjes de su tiempo, tarea que logró más allá de lo esperado. —Miguel Arias, Copyright © J.

14 de junio de 2020 El Cuerpo y la Sangre de Cristo

AMBIENTE SEGURO

ALIMENTO CELESTIAL Dios sostentó al pueblo de Israel por cuarenta años en el desierto con maná venido del cielo, y Moisés no quiere que lo olviden. Dios hizo brotar agua de la roca para que bebieran, y Moisés tampoco quiere que olviden esto. Y Moisés se lo dice –dos veces—que el alimento que Dios envió era comida que ni ellos ni sus antepasados jamás habían probado antes. Jesús, también habla del pan venido del cielo, comida que el pueblo judío jamás había probado antes. Recordando el maná del desierto, Jesús tampoco quiere que ellos lo olvi-den, explicándoles que él es pan y bebida para la vida eterna. Y Pablo les reitera a los corintios y a todos noso-tros que en el pan y en la copa participamos en el Cuerpo y la Sangre de Cristo. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

TRANSFORMACIÓN El efecto de compartir el Cuerpo y la Sangre de Cristo es transfor-

marnos en lo que recibimos. —Papa san León Magno
