In both Testaments, it is blood that is the primary source and sign of the covenant between God and people. In our day, while we speak quite a bit about the Mass as a sacrifice, it is a bit of an anomaly that we focus so much (almost exclusively, some mes) on the symbol of the bread become Body rather than the wine become Blood to give the life of the New Covenant. Here, as in almost every part of life, we would benefit more from living in a “both/and” and not an “either/or” mode. A BLOODLESS BODY? We have been given a deep and rich pair of symbols to express the fullness of Jesus’ self-gi on the cross. In its celebra on of the Eucharist, even when recep on of Communion by all the faithful was infrequent and when the emphasis was on looking upon (called “ocular” communion) rather than receiving the elements, the Church has always preserved the duality of these symbols, since the sacrifice of Christ would not have been possible without both blood and body. So, too, is it for us who are sent from the eucharis c celebra on. We are not merely “Christ-ed” bodies in the world; we need to be the very Blood of Christ coursing through the veins of daily life at home, in the workplace, at school—wherever the Spirit leads us and guides us. As we pray “Lord, send your Spirit on these gi s,” we must also pray that the same Spirit is sent upon us through the thanksgiving of our Eucharist, so we may become Body—and Blood—for the life of the world. Today’s Readings: Exodus 24:3–8; Psalm 116:12–13, 15–18; Hebrews 9:11–15; Mark 14:12–16, 22–26 El Sanơsimo Cuerpo y la SanƟsma Sangre de Cristo LA NUEVA ALIANZA Tal vez este año podemos referirnos a esta fes vidad como “La Sangre y el Cuerpo de Cristo”, ya que las lecturas de hoy u lizan bastante la palabra “sangre”: ocho veces frente a una vez que se usa la palabra “cuerpo”. Los autores del Nuevo Testamento, al tratar el tema del sacrificio de Jesús en la cruz, nunca se refieren a que Jesús dio su cuerpo como sacrificio para nuestra salvación, sino solamente mencionan el derramamiento de su sangre. En ambos testamentos, la sangre es la fuente principal y el símbolo de la alianza entre Dios y su pueblo. En la actualidad, aunque hablamos un poquito sobre la misa como un sacrificio, es casi una anomalía que nos centremos demasiado (casi exclusivamente, algunas veces) en el símbolo del pan que se convierte en el Cuerpo en lugar del vino que se transforma en la Sangre para dar vida a la Nueva Alianza. Aquí, como en la mayor parte de la vida, nos beneficiamos más de vivir en una modalidad de “ambos/y” en lugar de “uno/o” el otro. ¿UN CUERPO SIN SANGRE? Hemos recibido dos símbolos profundos y significa vos para expresar la entrega total de Jesús en la cruz. En su celebración de la Eucaris a, aun cuando era infrecuente que todos los fieles recibieran la comunión y cuando el énfasis se daba en mirar (llamada comunión “ocular”) en lugar de recibir los elementos, la Iglesia siempre ha preservado la dualidad de estos símbolos, ya que el sacrificio de Cristo no hubiese sido posible sin la Sangre y el Cuerpo. Lo mismo se aplica a nosotros que somos enviados de esta celebración eucarís ca. No somos meramente cuerpos “conver dos en Cristo” en el mundo, sino necesitamos que la Sangre de Cristo corra por nuestras venas en la vida diaria en la casa, el trabajo, la escuela o en cualquier otro lugar donde nos lleve y guíe el Espíritu. Al rezar “Señor, san fica estos dones con la efusión de tu Espíritu”, también debemos orar para que el mismo Espíritu venga a nosotros por medio de la acción de gracias de nuestra Eucaris a, para que seamos Cuerpo —y sangre— para la vida del mundo.

SUNDAY, JUNE 7, 2015 SOLEMNITY OF THE MOST HOLY BODY AND BLOOD OF CHRIST (CORPUS CHRISTI) Let us break bread together One person can make a difference—perhaps even change the liturgical calendar the Catholic Church follows in celebrating important traditions. The feast of Corpus Christi (literally, the body of Christ) was added to the calendar largely due to a 40-year campaign by a 13th-century religious woman, Juliana of Liège, who had a special devotion to the Blessed Sacrament and worked to see a feast day devoted to it. Little by little the idea gained popularity and acceptance and is now celebrated worldwide. Today or the next time you attend Mass, remember Juliana and her efforts during the Eucharistic Prayers. How many e-mails do you receive and send every day? Now consider: How many of them contain encouragements? To encourage means to lend courage with words and aid. Saint Paul often began his letters by building up his friends with praise, blessings, and moral support. While many of us are quick to criticize, we may be slow to offer support, praise, or thanks. Courage, often called fortitude, is one of the four cardinal virtues, along with prudence, justice, and temperance. Offer a kind and encouraging word to everyone you meet today. Ours is a culture of access and excess. We have a lot, and we’re used to indulging ourselves at the table, shopping mall, gabfest, and every other trough where addiction feeds. Guys like Ephrem the Syrian can seem alien to us. Not quite a monk but rather “a son of the covenant,” Ephrem chose to live in abstinence and celibacy within the community of faith. He could have taken more but he settled for less. Out of that sufficiency he wrote hymns, poems, and theology. Temperance, the lifestyle of deliberate moderation, is one cardinal virtue that doesn’t go out of style. Other times it means monetary restoration. Justice, one of four cardinal virtues, involves giving what’s due to God and our neighbor, restoring the balance of what’s right. Somehow prudence, the fourth cardinal virtue, has gotten a bad rep. We reduce it to prudishness, a kind of spoil-sport or party-pooper personality. Yet Proverbs describes prudence as being sensible: “The prudent one looks where he is going.” And the First Letter of Peter calls it keeping “sane and sober” in order to approach the work of prayer more meaningfully. Thomas Aquinas defined this virtue as “right reason in action,” involving the activity of the conscience. Exercise prudence before you speak or act by pausing to consider how the greatest good can be achieved. Over the centuries, devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus arose as a way of symbolizing and embodying the great compassion Jesus displayed throughout his ministry. One of the ways this devotion can be practiced is by entrusting your household to the care of the Sacred Heart with an image that has been blessed, a statue or picture of the Sacred Heart for example, serving as a reminder to live compassionately. The practice is rooted in Pope Pius XII’s declaration in 1956 that devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus is “the foundation on which to build the kingdom of God in the hearts of individuals, families, and nations.” Saint Anthony shows how faith can help us keep our bearings when life takes unexpected turns. A 13th-century Franciscan, Anthony sailed on mission to Africa only to have illness force his return. En route to Spain, his ship was blown off course, landing in Italy. In poor health, Anthony settled in a hermitage near the friars. One day they approached Anthony just before an important ceremony, asking him to give a homily when they realized nobody had prepared one. Anthony’s powerful preaching reflected the faith that had carried him through all circumstances. When life takes an unexpected direction, invite Anthony to journey with you. Some of us make the mistake of viewing Christianity as the “easy” religion: “Whatever you do, God will forgive you.” Well, yes and no. Forgiveness isn’t the same as immunity from all consequences. Contrition, a lively regret for our wrongdoing, is one aspect of repentance, as is restitution, the act of making good what’s lost by our sinfulness. Sometimes that means working hard to restore relationships.
