Generations of Faith 2023/24

What comes to mind when you hear the word Eucharist, our Generations of Faith topic this year? Maybe one of the following?
** The Eucharist celebrated refers to the Mass, the holy and divine liturgy.
** The Liturgy of the Eucharist refers to one of the two main parts of the Mass. The other being the Liturgy of the Word. The Liturgy of the Eucharist begins with the preparation of the gifts of bread and wine through the prayer after Communion.
**The Eucharist received refers to Holy Communion, the Body of Christ.
** Devotion to the Eucharist refers to Eucharistic Processions, Forty-Hours Devotions, Adoration, Benediction. [The Catholic Source Book, Harcourt Religion Publishers, 2007] Our YOUNG PEOPLE will be studying the Mass, the Eucharist Celebrated, which will include the other aspects of Eucharist mentioned above.
In October, the ADULTS will look at Jesus’s actions and teaching in Scripture about the Eucharist celebrated and received.

Eucharistic Adoration 
The Eucharist is being exposed on the altar in church on the following schedule:
Tuesdays: 6:00pm – 8:30pm
[Note: that’s a usual time for our neighborhood
Evangelization efforts so prayer support is appreciated!]
Thursdays: 9:15am – 12:15pm
[Note: Holy Hour for Priestly Vocations from 9:15am – 10:15am]
Saturdays: 1:00pm – 3:15pm
[Note: Confessions 1:00 pm – 3:45pm]One of the greatest treasures of the Catholic faith is the Eucharist. Ever since the Last Supper, the Catholic Church has believed that the Eucharist is truly the Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of Jesus Christ. You are invited to come and spend time in adoration with Jesus at Corpus Christi as we begin to offer these new time slots for adoration. Ideally, we will have two people in the church before Jesus whenever adoration happens. On our parish website you will see two slots for each time. Please know that if the slot is filled there will still be plenty of room in church for you!
