through the window of the family home in Nazareth to spy Mary standing in the kitchen. Mary’s life was not as public as her Son’s, but it was not as private as her contemporaries. And in the Book of Revelation, her mystical significance is exposed for all to see. She straddles heaven and earth in a duel with the devil. Mary’s wounded maternal heart beats strong and fast for the faithful and for the world, then, on a cosmic stage. Her heart is sinless but bruised, slit by seven swords of sorrow and dripping red for love of man. Vatican II’s description of Mary as the Temple of the Holy Spirit (Lumen Gentium 52-53) implies that her heart is the red-hot tabernacle of that Temple. Today’s feast was first referred to as Mary’s “Admirable Heart” or “Most Pure Heart.” Yet all the titles reflect the same truth; just like the love of Jesus’s Sacred Heart, Mary’s love for Christ and us is a tangible, human love. The Queen and King of Hearts are united in their love of all that is worth loving.

Immaculate Heart of Mary, your bruised but beating heart softens our love for you and the Church. Your love is maternal, warm, docile, and concerned. Infuse our hearts with love like yours so we can live like you in this world and the next.

Immaculate Heart of Mary Saturday following the Second Sunday

after Pentecost Memorial (June 20, 2020)

Taken from website: mycatholiclife

Wing to wing, oar to oar, heart to heart

The images by which the Church describes Herself are primarily feminine—Bride, Mother, Virgin, Spouse—while masculine terms are used for the Church’s ministry— the

Office of Saint Peter, Office of Bishop, Holy Orders, etc. The fatherly labor and paternal structure of the Church are an outgrowth of her essentially mater-nal nature. Ecclesia Mater, Mother Church, loves with a huge heart, while Apostles, bishops, priests, and deacons hold souls together in their common mother’s embrace. In the thinking of Pope Saint John Paul II, the “Marian Church,” the Church of discipleship, precedes and makes possible the “Petrine Church,” the Church of office and authority. So authority serves discipleship, and discipleship has preeminence over, and makes sense of, authority. Even the fatherly and authoritative Saint Paul speaks with maternal concern, calling new Christians his “children,” saying he is like a “nurse” to them, and bragging that he has “begotten” them through the Gospel.

On today’s Feast of Mary’s Immaculate Heart, the maternal warmth radiating from the core of Mary bakes the faithful soul. Our hearts glow when we look upon the seven-pierced heart of the mother of Jesus and commiserate with the holy longing in her tender eyes. Our love for Mary also softens our love for our mother the Church. Our minds know that the Church loves us and nourish-es us with sanctifying grace. But intellectual convictions need to be felt. In the same way that Christ concretely and historically images the Father, so too Mary images, concretely and historically, the Church. Mary is not a mere symbol of the Church but anticipates and embodies what she gave birth to. Absent Mary, the Church would be just a little bit too hard, too distant, and too austere. It would be like a camping site or a large, cold, house, providing shelter but lacking a woman’s touch. Mary converts the dry household of faith into a cozy family home. Without her heartfelt love, the house would simply not be the same.

The prophecy of Simeon in the second chapter of Luke’s Gospel is the first biblical indication of Mary’s interior suffering. Simeon tells Mary that Jesus will be a sign that will be contradicted and that a sword shall pierce her own heart. Years later, Mary and Joseph panic when Jesus stays behind in Jerusa-lem while they return to Nazareth. When they recover him in the temple and return home, Luke tells us that Mary “treasured all these things in her heart” (Lk 2:51). At the foot of the cross, Mary’s pondering heart is crushed and bewildered when sin closes in on her Son. But just when Christ’s life appears to be stillborn, Mary’s heart is vivified by the resurrection, and she becomes the first-century Church’s indispensable witness and most sturdy anchor.

The Immaculate Heart of Mary is not a closed garden. We don’t peek in

Stewardship Moment June 14, 2020 – Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ (Corpus Christi)

“Because there is one bread, we who are many are one body, for we all partake of the one bread.” 1 CORINTHIANS 10:17

As disciples of Jesus, we are called to lead holy lives and invite others to join us. Living a stewardship lifestyle, being grateful and generous with our gifts, serves a twofold purpose. One, it helps build God’s kingdom here on earth. Two, it helps us strengthen each other’s relationship with God the Father, Jesus and the Ho-ly Spirit. It becomes our roadmap to Heaven. Let’s help each other get there!

Fr. Kevin - Feast of Corpus Christi - Cycle A – 2020+ Deuteronomy 8:2-3,14-16; 1 Corinthians 10:16-17; John 6:51-58

Today we celebrate one of the most important feasts of our Church. I say this is one of the most important because it is a celebration of our belief that Christ is very really present in the Eucharistic species

that appears to be bread and wine but that has truly become the body and blood, soul and divinity of Christ.

This belief, which has been central to the Church for our entire history, has not always been accepted. In fact, for the last 500 years, since the time of the reformation, the belief in the real presence of Christ has been rejected by many who profess belief in Christ. Even today one poll indicates that as many as 60% of people who identify as Catholic do not believe in the real presence of Christ in the Eucharist. Of those regularly attending mass that number drops to 30% who do not believe in the real presence. As a result of this, we are experiencing today a significant decline in mass attendance and numbers of people walking away from Christ as we have never seen in our entire history.

I believe this is the number one reason people leave the Church. They may say they are leaving because the Church won’t ordain women, or because of the Church’s condemnation of birth control, or because the Church will not bless same-sex marriages, or because of the clergy abuse scandal. But I would argue that nearly every one who leaves the Church either does not understand, or else does not believe that Christ is truly present in the Eucharist. After all, if the bread we eat truly is the body of Christ, and the wine we drink truly is His blood, then how could we possibly leave Him?

There have been times in our history when God has given us extraordinary signs as a reminder to us of what it is we truly profess. God has given these in times when our belief in the real presence of Christ has been questioned our doubted. The very first time this happened was over 1200 years ago. A Basilian monk was offering a mass. It was during the consecration that he doubted in his heart that the bread and the wine become the body and blood of Christ. After speaking the words, “This is my Body. This is my Blood.” the monk saw the host change into a living piece of flesh and the wine change into real blood.

The church at Lanciano has become a popular pilgrimage sight for 1200 years. To this very day you can visit this Church and see the flesh and blood on display for veneration. In 1970-71 the Bishop of the diocese requested a scientific investigation of these elements. It was determined, through scientific analysis, that the flesh is that of a human heart. The blood and the heart have the same blood type (AB). And, although it has been exposed to air and biological agents for 1200 years, the flesh and blood have not deteriorated.

More recently, God has given us another extraordinary miracle, this time in Buenos Aires, Argentina. On August 18, 1996, Fr. Alejandro Pezet had just finished offering Mass when a woman came to him saying she had found a host sitting on a candlestick in the back of the church. Knowing he ought not

consume it (not knowing what might have been done to it) he simply placed it in a dish of water and left it in the tabernacle over night.

One week later, he went to the tabernacle only to find that the Host had turned into a bloody substance. He informed his bishop, Cardinal Jorge Borgoglio, who told him to have it professionally photographed and that this be kept a secret. After three years, because the flesh showed no sign of decomposition, Cardinal Borgoglio ordered that it be scientifically analyzed. These tests were done by a well respected cardiologist and forensic pathologist Dr. Frederic Zugiba. He was not told the origin of the piece of flesh. His analysis showed that this was human heart tissue, from the left ventricle, the part of the heart that pumps the blood to the rest of the body. Furthermore his analysis indicated that the heart was alive at the time the sample was taken. This was because there were white blood cells in the flesh. These cells die only a few minutes after death. He also concluded that, because these cells were embedded in the tissue of the heart, the person had experienced trauma to the chest, as though having been beaten severely.

It was only after these conclusions that Dr. Zugiba was told of the origin of this tissue. To this he replied, “How and why a consecrated Host would change its character and become living human flesh and blood will remain an inexplicable mystery to science -- a mystery totally beyond her competence.”

I tell you these stories, not to get you all excited about these miracles. These are extraordinary phenomenon which simply point to what we have taught through our entire history. In the words of our Lord, “. . . the bread that I will give is my flesh for the life of the world” (John 6:51) and “. . . my flesh is true food and my blood is true drink” (John 6:55). It is important to note, that after Jesus spoke these words many found the words simply too hard to accept, and so they left Him. To this Jesus asked His disciples, “Do you also want to leave?” To this Jesus responded, “Master, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life” (John 6:68).

My brothers and sisters, in this mass we will be eating the very real body, blood, soul and divinity of Christ. This food is different from other food. When we eat other food it is digested and becomes a part of us. In eating this spiritual food we become what we eat, the body, blood, soul and divinity of Christ. We then are his life-giving presence in the world today. Pray that your heart will become more like our Lord’s heart. Pray that you will be the instrument of God’s grace and mercy to each person you meet this week.
