May 30, 2024 – Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ
Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ May 30, 2024 The Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ Dear Family of Mary! Today we observe the Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ! It is a very important celebration in our Church! Jesus’ Body and Blood, given to us as Heavenly Food, to nourish us on our arduous way to Heaven, is the miracle of all miracles!! Unbelievable!! (Some dioceses have transferred this Solemnity to the following Sunday.) Here are Our Lord’s very words when He established His bodily presence with us until He would come again: While they were eating, He took bread, said the blessing, broke it, gave it to them, and said, “Take it; this is my body.” Then He took a cup, gave thanks, and gave it to them, and they all drank from it. He said to them, “This is my blood of the covenant, which will be shed for many. Amen, I say to you, I shall not drink again the fruit of the vine until the day when I drink it new in the kingdom of God.” Then, after singing a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives. Mark 14: 22-26 Today, in Medjugorje, the parish holds a Corpus Christi Procession, directly after the Evening Mass! The priests and faithful will process with Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament throughout the village of Medjugorje! It is always so moving!! Mary TV will stream this event “live”. It will begin at around 7:00 pm Medjugorje time. Please join us for this beautiful procession of love! Here is a Message from Our Lady given to Mirjana Soldo, in which Our Lady spoke to us about the gift of Her Son’s Body and Blood! Very moving: July 2, 2015 “Dear children, I am calling you to spread the faith in my Son – your faith. You, my children illuminated by the Holy Spirit, my apostles, transmit it to others – to those who do not believe, who do not know, who do not want to know – but for that you must pray a lot for the gift of love, because love is the mark of true faith – and you will be apostles of my love. Love always, anew, revives the pain and the joy of the Eucharist, it revives the pain of the Passion of my Son, by which He showed you what it means to love immeasurably; it revives the joy for having left you His Body and Blood to feed you with Himself – and in this way, to be one with you. Looking at you with tenderness, I feel immeasurable love which strengthens me in my desire to bring you to a firm faith. Firm faith will give you joy and happiness on earth and in the end the encounter with my Son. This is His desire. Therefore, live Him, live love, live the light that always illuminates you in the Eucharist. I implore you to pray a lot for your shepherds, to pray so as to have all the more love for them because my Son gave them to you to feed you with His body and to teach you love. Therefore, also you are to love them. But, my children, remember, love means to endure and to give, and never, ever to judge. Thank you.” Jesus, in the Blessed Sacrament, we love you!!! In Jesus, Mary and Joseph! Cathy Nolan (c) Mary TV 2024
