I cannot omit the great Sacrament of Love. Today is the feast of Corpus Cristi, the solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Jesus. The feast is a celebration of the priesthood, through which the Body of Christ is made physically available to the people of God. It is also a commemoration of the great gift of His Body and Blood to strengthen the Mystical Body of Christ, the Church on Earth. This feast should be a time of reflection, and renewed fervor for the Most Blessed Sacrament. We should always strive to receive Him as if it were our first, last, and only time that we could receive Him. Such should be our reverence and disposition at each reception of Holy Communion. It would be even more efficacious if we would receive Him with the Immaculate Heart of Mary. Ask Mary to give you her pure heart, so that you might receive him most worthily and thus bring about the greatest salvation of souls and conversion of sinners.
Happy Feast Day!
Love the Immaculata!

my grandma passed away on Corpus Christi, 2012. prayers of Divine Mercy work even from a distance. i count on your prayers just in case she's stuck in purgatory; poor Granny :( i brought her Communion once - since she held the rosary crucifix when i prayed the rosary/chaplet - i didn't want to deny her that little chance at eternal life which i have so much access to and she's just ignorant of. i confessed it, but confess it to you too. get used to hearing confessions haha! pray for my grandma thanks.
