PLENARY INDULGENCE DURING THE YEAR
OF CONSECRATED LIFE!
On the occasion of this special Year, Pope Francis has conceded plenary
indulgences, under the customary conditions: the individual be in the state of
grace by the completion of the acts, have complete detachment from sin, and
pray for the Pope’s intentions. The person must also sacramentally confess
their sins and receive Communion, up to about twenty days before or after
the indulgenced act.
The period for gaining this indulgence began on the First Sunday of Advent
2014 and will conclude on February 2, 2016, the day of the closure of the Year
of Consecrated Life. In the Diocese of Lafayette a plenary indulgence may be
obtained during those days devoted to consecrated life and during diocesan
celebrations organized for the Year of Consecrated Life (by participating in any
Votive Mass for Consecrated or Religious Life, Vocations Awareness, Jubilarian
Mass, etc) or by visiting any of the following designated places:
•
Cathedral of Saint John the Evangelist, Lafayette
•
Immaculate Heart of Mary Church, Lafayette
•
Saint Charles Borromeo Church, Grand Coteau
•
Saint Martin de Tours, St. Martinville
•
Mother of the Redeemer Monastery, * Plaisance
•
Carmelite Monastery, * Lafayette
•
Mater Dolorosa Chapel, *St. Martinville
In order to obtain the plenary indulgence, one must publicly recite the Liturgy
of the Hours (please note places that are marked with an asterisk all have
public recitation of the Divine Office; please contact them for times) or devote
a suitable period of time for devout reflection, concluding with the Lord’s
Prayer, the Creed, and pious invocation of the Virgin Mary.

SUNDAY: 7 JUNE: THE MOST HOLY BODY AND BLOOD OF CHRIST
From the Pastor
“My heart’s desire and prayer to God for them is
that they may be saved.” Romans 10:1
Mes chers amis,
On this Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of
Our Lord, we renew our faith in the great gift of the
Holy Eucharist. Corpus Christi celebrates the greatest
treasure of the Church: the Holy Eucharist, which Our
Lord Jesus said is the means of being truly one with Him
on this earth and the way to Eternal Life. Will we ever
allow ourselves to walk away and abandon Our Lord in
the Holy Eucharist through sin? Why do so many people
do so? Or, like St. Peter, do we realize the greatness
of the gift and respond, “Master, to whom shall we
go? You have the words of eternal life.” (John 6:68).
Today, let us remember two important things: Jesus’
command: “Do this in memory of me.”(Luke 22:19)
We MUST celebrate the Holy Eucharist faithfully and
reverently on the Lord’s Holy Day. Every Sunday.
Secondly, St. Paul’s serious admonition: “Whoever eats
the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord unworthily will
have to answer for the body and blood of the Lord. A
person should examine himself, and so eat the bread
and drink the cup. For anyone who eats and drinks
without discerning the body, eats and drinks judgment
on himself.” (1 Corinthians 11:27-29). We must NEVER
commit the sacrilege of receiving the Lord’s Body and
Blood in the state of sin. There is always the possibility
of going to Confession to be forgiven of our mortal sins
before receiving Holy Communion. Thanks be to God
for this indescribable gift of life! Let us respond with
gratitude by celebrating the Holy Eucharist faithfully,
reverently, and worthily!
This Sunday - June 7 - we will have our annual Corpus
Christi Procession following the 10:00am Mass. We
will process inside the church and conclude with
Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament. Everyone is
invited to participate in this event. This is an excellent
opportunity to strengthen our faith in the Real Presence
of Christ in the Holy Eucharist

INTENTIONS OF POPE FRANCIS
FOR THE MONTH OF JUNE:

to offer their own lives in priesthood
