The solemnity of the most holy body and blood of Christ is also known as the solemnity of corpus Christi, which translates from Latin to "body of Christ." this feast originated in France in the mid-thirteenth century and was extended to the whole church by Pope Urban IV in 1264. This feast is celebrated on the Thursday following the trinity Sunday or, as in the USA, on the Sunday following that feast.

This feast calls us to focus on two manifestations of the body of Christ, the holy Eucharist and the church. The primary purpose of this feast is to focus our attention on the Eucharist. The opening prayer at mass calls our attention to Jesus’ suffering and death and our worship of him, especially in the Eucharist.

At every mass our attention is called to the Eucharist and the real presence of Christ in it. The secondary focus of this feast is upon the body of Christ as it is present in the church. The church is called the body of Christ because of the intimate communion which Jesus shares with his disciples. He expresses this in the gospels by using the metaphor of a body in which he is the head. This image helps keep in focus both the unity and the diversity of the church.

The feast of corpus Christi is commonly used as an opportunity for public Eucharistic processions, which serves as a sign of common faith and adoration. Our worship of Jesus in his body and blood calls us to offer to god our father a pledge of undivided love and an offering of ourselves to the service of others.

“They all ate and were satisfied. And when the leftover fragments were picked up, they filled twelve wicker baskets.” - LUKE 9:17

Just as Christ gave Himself entirely for us, we are called to offer our time, talent, and treasure in service to others. The love we receive in the Eucharist is not meant to be kept it is meant to overflow. It fills us, transforms us, and moves us to become faithful stewards of all that God has entrusted to us. Through this way of life, we reflect Christ s presence in the world. Each Steward has a role in God s plan; you just need to place your trust in the Lord. Nothing is impossible with God.

Planned Giving is an opportunity to continue this sacred mission beyond our lifetime. Just as the Eucharist is a gift that sustains the Church and its people, your planned gift becomes a lasting contribution that sustains the work of Christ s Body here on earth.

Through a bequest, trust, or other planned giving options, you ensure that future generations will continue to experience the love and grace of the Eucharist. By making a planned gift to the Church, you become part of a legacy of faith, hope, and Charity. Your generosity mirrors the self self-giving love of Christ, allowing His presence to continue in our parish, our ministries, and our community.
