“Lost Sheep”Fr. Patrick’s Holy Homework
This week, try to declare this faith statement aloud
at least seven time a day:
“In the name of Jesus,
I am beautifully focused.”
In some way, you will be doing what St. Paul told Timothy to do,
“stir into the flame the gift you have been given.”
(2 Tim 1:6)

Generations of Faith: Prophets — People Called to Speak and Act
The theme for Generations of Faith this year is Prophets—Called to Speak and Act. Prophets of the Bible were courageous people who spoke for God and who led God’s people. Prophets of the past and of today are people of faith who listen to God, and who use the gifts that God has given them to act in faith.
First Session is October 9, 2022 at 12:30pm. Check our Corpus Christi web site for more info.

It’s happening here at Corpus Christi!
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!]

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!
You can go directly to the adoration sign-up by clicking on the following button:Adoration Sign-Up Please Pray for …
