The Body and Blood of Christ in 2023

2/2 Details of the same scene, this time in early 16th Century English glass, at Ayston, Rutland. The blood drips from Christ's wounds into chalices held by angels. Today is the feast of Corpus Christi, the Body and Blood of Christ. https://t.co/3MgTtKV2Jj

Today's the feast of the Most Holy Body and Blood, traditionally known as Corpus Christi. Angels collect Christ's blood in chalices in glass made at Augsburg, Germany in 1540 and now at Stradsett, Norfolk. Stradsett: https://t.co/SD5sxfU5b2 https://t.co/chN2XBTvct

This bizarre repeated assertion about ‘existence’. I don’t believe that the Eucharist wafer and wine become the body and blood of Christ but that doesn’t mean I think Catholics don’t exist. #GenderWars

Lord Jesus Christ, You gave Your Catholic Church an admirable sacrament as the abiding memorial of Your passion. Teach us so to worship the sacred mystery of Your Body and Blood that its redeeming power may sanctify us always. Who live and reign with God the Father. Amen. https://t.co/X19BBOuHJD

Lord Jesus Christ, we thank you that in this wonderful sacrament you have given us the memorial of your passion: grant us so to reverence the sacred mysteries of your body and blood that we may know within ourselves and show forth in our lives the fruits of your redemption. Amen. https://t.co/04DMEYDlJa

This Sunday is an opportunity to reflect on the wonderful mystery of the Eucharist: the sacrament that nourishes our faith and gives life to the world. Try a guided reflection from St Beuno's Outreach: https://t.co/r3qv1PUL4g https://t.co/qclqh28jDc

I am looking forward to be at St Matthew's, Douglas for 'Dies Sanctissimi Corporis et Sanguinis Domini Iesu Christi.' The Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ, otherwise called Corpus Christi. The feast is transferred from Thursday to Sunday. https://t.co/dqGKw7G6UT
