This Sunday, we celebrate the feast of Corpus Christi, the Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ. The gospel passage speaks of the abundance of Christ.
“Then taking the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaven, he said the blessing over them, broke them, and gave them to the disciples to set before the crowd. They all ate and were satisfied.”
Luke 9:16-17
