The most recognizable "signs" are ones we see on the road or the branding in advertisements. The logos for major companies don't do much more than perk our interest or disdain. They surely don't deliver on their promises for our lives to be happier, healthier, and easier. On this feast of Corpus Christi, we hear the account of the Last Supper. This was Passover, an ancient sign of the covenant of Moses. The Hebrew people celebrated God's providential care for His people. To the listening disciples, Jesus makes a very bold claim. "This is my blood of the covenant." At the time of the first Passover -- the redemption of the Hebrew people from slavery to the Egyptians - the blood of the sacrificial lamb was spread on the lintels of the doorpost. Tomorrow, some of the disciples would witness the blood of the new covenant spread across the wood of the cross. Christ's Body and Blood are more than a sign. They are a sacrament. In the sacrament, the sign makes real what it signifies. More than ritual, a sacrament enacts truth of the covenantal love of God and His promise of fidelity. It's a promise God keeps. The same bread and wine of that first Holy Thursday liturgy becomes - throughout the centuries and until the end of time - the very Body and Blood of Christ. On this feast, we celebrate the unfailing covenantal love of our God. As you partake in the Eucharist today, and next Sunday, and the Sunday after that, remember that you receive neither a meaningless sign nor an empty offer. You receive God Himself, as He fulfills His promise to remain with us always. In that divine heart beats God's love for everyone, for each one of us individually. -St. John Paul II

It was difficult in todays reading for Jesus family to understand his mission. In some ways, the situation can parallel relations between parents and young adults today; some parents don t understand what their children must do. If you are a parent with a child exploring a religious vocation, try to be patient and supportive of their discernment process. Many parents want grandchildren, or imagine that their children will be unhappy as priests or religious. Whatever vocation the young person in your life is discerning lay ministry, social sciences, health care, the arts, crafts, communications, trade fields, and so forth, pray that they can be open to the guidance of the Holy Spirit. The Church and the world need willing hands and hearts of all ages. Pray for all the vocation of helping and serving. Psalm 139: verses 1-3, 13-14, O Lord, you search me and you know me. You yourself know my resting and my rising; you discern my thoughts from afar. You mark when I walk or lie down; you know all my ways through and though. For it was you who formed my inmost being, knit me together in my mother s womb. I thank you who wonderfully made me; how wonderful are your works, which my soul knows well. O search me, God, and know my heart. O test me, and know my thoughts. See that my path is not wicked, and lead me in the way everlasting. Let us keep one another in prayer. Do you have extra stuffed animals laying around? If so, we could use them for the bazaar this summer. We are in need of new or gently used stuffed animals of any size for prizes at the Bazaar Kid s World tent.

Prayer and worship connect us to the God who created us and who daily gives us purpose and provides for us. Times of community and fellowship unite us with our family in faith to realize that we are not alone on our journey of love with God. Outreach and charity put our faith into action so that we can be the hands and heart of Jesus in the world and provide for the needs of others. Yet, at the heart of our faith, its essential foundation, is the gift of God himself to his people, the Eucharist. The Eucharist is the memorial of God s great act of love for us, the death and resurrection of his Son, Jesus. The Eucharist is the Body and Blood of Christ made truly present so that we might be nourished to do the work of God in the world. The Eucharist is the source of our life as people of faith and that to which we return all that we have received in thanksgiving to God. Inspired by this Feast of Corpus Christi and as we journey On Mission for The Church Alive! may our love for the Eucharist increase so that our faith may remain strong in the midst of change.
