Dear Parishioners, This last Wednesday we welcomed Deacon

Tyler Raymond one of the newest transitional

deacons in the Archdiocese. He will be living in Calmar with me and will begin his diaconal ministry with

us. We are very blessed to have another seminarian sent to

us. It is a real act of confidence by the Archbishop in our parish communities to nurture vocations and to help men as

they prepare for sacred ordination to the priesthood. !! Not every parish has a seminarian sent to them, so this

makes this summer extra special having Deacon Tyler among

us. Please welcome him with open arms and encourage him

as he begins his preaching ministry among us. This weekend we celebrate the Solemnity of the Most Holy

Body and Blood of Christ or traditionally known as Corpus

Christi. It is the summer celebration of our belief in the Real

Presence of Jesus Christ in the Holy Eucharist. This is truly

our most cherished belief. If you would rank the most

important doctrines of our faith, the three most important

doctrines would be: 1. The Most Holy Trinity 2. The Incarnation 3. Real Presence of Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament

The first two beliefs are what makes us Christian, but the

belief in the Real Presence is what makes us Catholic. Other Christian churches celebrate the Eucharist, but our belief that

Jesus is truly present, Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity is

what makes us truly unique. We truly offer worship to the

Eucharist because the Eucharist is God Himself on our altars

in our churches. So one thought to consider this weekend is how do you

receive Holy Communion? Do you reverently and with respect receive the host and take the chalice in your

hands. Are you careless with the host in your hands? Do you bow before you receive? Do you realize who are you are

receiving? Do you need to go to confession to worthily receive him? Do you truly bring a living faith to holy

communion or is it just a habit. If it is a habit and not with much devotion, is it time to reconsider how you are receiving

him in Holy Communion? Is it time to attend Mass without

receiving communion and ask yourself the question, “Is there

any difference?” If you bring living faith to Holy Communion, it will

change for you. It will become the most important moment of

your week; to receive the Son of God in your soul so that the

Son of God can transform your soul. I pray that all of us have great reverence, love, and respect

for the Most Blessed Sacrament! I pray that we may never

take it for granted because if we do, maybe the Lord will take

it from us to make us long for it even more! Let us love Jesus in the Eucharist and let us help others to love Jesus in the

Eucharist! God bless!
