Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint
Mark
14:12-16.22-26.
On the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread,
when they sacrificed the Passover lamb, Jesus'
disciples said to him, "Where do you want us to go
and prepare for you to eat the Passover?"
He sent two of his disciples and said to them, "Go
into the city and a man will meet you, carrying a jar
of
water.
Follow
him.
Wherever he enters, say to the master of the house,
'The Teacher says, "Where is my guest room where I
may eat the Passover with my disciples?"'
Then he will show you a large upper room furnished
and ready. Make the preparations for us there."
The disciples then went off, entered the city, and
found it just as he had told them; and they prepared
the
Passover.
While they were eating, he took bread, said the
blessing, broke it, and gave it to them, and said,
"Take
it;
this
is
my
body."
Then he took a cup, gave thanks, and gave it to them,
and
they
all
drank
from
it.
He said to them, "This is my blood of the covenant,
which
will
be
shed
for
many.
Amen, I say to you, I shall not drink again the fruit
of the vine until the day when I drink it new in the
kingdom
of
God."
Then, after singing a hymn, they went out to the
Mount of Olives.
May the Lord’s healing and life-giving touch be
upon those whose cross is too heavy to
bear. Amen.

"The fundamental human right, the
presupposition of every other right, is the
right to life itself. This is true of life from the
moment of conception until its natural end.
Abortion, consequently, cannot be a human

The Trinity is the Starting Point for
“Evangelizing”
By: Kristina M. DeNeve
Adult Faith Formation Coordinator, Diocese of Honolulu
I love Catholic Sacraments; the Real Presence is
important to my faith. Therefore, I am deeply
concerned
when
we
Catholics
(usually
unintentionally) talk about Eucharist and the Real
Presence in a way that divides rather than unites.
We are being divisive when we belittle
nondenominational Christians who pass around
small cups of juice. We are divisive when we forget
that some Protestant denominations also believe in
the Real Presence. (These denominations primarily
differ on when the bread becomes Jesus or how long
it stays Jesus.) Divisive when we tell our less active
Catholic brothers and sisters that they just need to
try harder if they don’t understand and/or believe in
the Real Presence. Know that I am in no way
questioning Catholic doctrine. Indeed, it is our
doctrine that tells me that Eucharist is first, foremost
and always a unitive Sacrament. Jesus unites
himself to us and we unite ourselves to one another.
That we cannot share Eucharist with non-Catholics
is a reality that demands our grief. Yes, let’s be
proud of this special, life-giving gift. But, we
disrespect this holy Sacrament of union when we
use it to feel superior to others.

A Summer Blessing
May you walk with God
This summer
In whatever you do
Wherever you go
Walking with God means...
Walking with honesty
And with courage,
Walking with love
And respect
And concern for the feelings of others
May you talk to God
This summer
And every day and
In every situation
Talking with God means...
Praying words of praise
For the beauty of creation
Saying prayers of thanks
For friends and good times,
Asking God's help
In all your decisions
Expressing sorrow
When you have failed
May you talk with God
Every day. Amen.

The Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ
DECIDE
"He took bread, blessed and broke it,
and gave it to them. 'Take this,' He
said, 'this is My body.' " –Mark 14:22
Corpus Christi
At the Passover meal, Jesus took bread and said:
"This is My body." Then He took a cup of wine and
said: "This is My blood, the blood of the covenant"
(Mk 14:24). Jesus means this literally. Despite
losing many of His disciples because of this (Jn
6:60, 66), Jesus insisted that His flesh was real
food and His blood real drink (Jn 6:55).
Do you believe that Jesus gives us His body and
blood in Holy Communion? The Lord does not want
you to "straddle the issue" (see 1 Kgs 18:21), be
lukewarm (Rv 3:16), or persist in doubt (see Jn
20:27). If you believe in the eucharistic Jesus, you
will try to go to Mass and receive His body and
blood daily or as often as possible. In eucharistic

love, you will make visits to church to be in the
intimate
presence
of
Jesus,
the
Blessed
Sacrament. If you decide to live the "mystery of
faith" in the body and blood of Jesus, you will center
your life on Jesus, the Eucharist.
By grace decide once and for all to live and die for
the eucharistic Jesus.
PRAYER: "Sweet Sacrament, we Thee adore. O,
make us love Thee more and more."
PROMISE: "How shall I make a return to the Lord
for all the good He has done for me?
The cup of salvation I will take up, and I
will call upon the name of the Lord." –Ps
"Truly, truly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh
of the Son of man and drink His blood, you have no
life in you; he who eats My flesh and drinks My
blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the
last day." -- John 6:53, 54
Hebrews portrays Christ as High Priest, entering
the Holy of Holies with his own Blood to seal the
New Covenant that frees us from death. In our
day, medical emergencies, natural disasters, and
global violence prompt continual pleas for lifesaving blood donors, helping us appreciate Jesus’
outpouring of his lifeblood for our salvation.
Instituted at the Last Supper, offered on the cross,
Jesus’ sacrifice and supper are shared at every
Eucharist.
116:12-13
PRAISE:
Praise You, risen Jesus, eucharistic
Lamb of God! You have triumphed over
death and given us "life from the dead!"
(Rm 11:15)

Question of the Week?
In what specific way this week can I translate my
belief in Christ’s real presence in the Eucharist
into my practical service of Christ really present
in someone who needs my love?
