Use words if necessary!” - St. Francis of Assisi June 7, 2015 – The Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ “Corpus Christi” From the Desk of Father Stephen Dear Friends: Today’s Solemnity reminds us to honor Jesus, the Son of God, the Second Person of the Blessed Trinity, in the Eucharist, the Consecrated Bread and Wine of Communion. Let us remember that Jesus is truly present in the Eucharist. Let us remember to honor and respect this Real Presence of Jesus in our midst. Let us consider, reflect upon and pray this traditional prayer. ANIMA CHRISTI Soul of Christ, sanctify me. Body of Christ, save me. Blood of Christ, inebriate me. Water from the side of Christ, wash me. Passion of Christ, strengthen me. O good Jesus, hear me. Within thy wounds hide me. Permit me not to be separated from thee. From the malicious enemy defend me. In the hour of my death call me, and bid me come to thee, that, with thy saints, I may praise thee, Forever and ever. Amen We give thanks to God for the two men who were ordained as priests of our Archdiocese of San Francisco, June 6, 2015, at 10:00 a.m. in our Metropolitan Cathedral of St. Mary of the Assumption, San Francisco. They are the Reverend Fathers Cameron Faller and Patrick Summerhays. Both Fr. Cameron and Fr. Patrick have assisted us at Immaculate Heart of Mary, Belmont, during their time at St. Patrick’s Seminary. We ask that you please remember them and their ministry as priests in our Archdiocese in your prayers. Peace, Fr. Stephen H. Howell, Pastor Second Collection Today will be for the necessary renovation and maintenance of the Parish Facility. Archdiocesan Annual Appeal: Our 2015 Assessment is $91,600.00. We are now at 50% point. We have $45,647.22 in cash and pledge. We ask that you consider making your donation/pledge at this time and joining the 142 parishioners who have already done so. If you need another brochure/envelope, some are in the Church vestibule or please call the parish office, (650) 593-6157. Announcement from San Francisco Archdiocesan Respect Life Program: It has come to our attention that individuals have been distributing flyers entitled “the truth about birth control pills” at some parishes. The Flyers state that they were “approved by the Archdiocese of S.F.” This is not true. Our Respect Life Program and Office of Marriage & Family Life can provide you with accurate resources on this and other pro-life and pro-family topics. They will discuss and respond to your questions and concerns regarding artificial contraception and natural family planning (NFP). For information please contact (415) 614-5533 or [email protected].
