Feast of Corpus Christi – The Most Holy Body & Blood of Christ: Focus: Jesus’ sacrifice seals our covenant with God forever. – As we celebrate the solemnity of the Most Holy Body & Blood of Christ, we give thanks in a particular way for Christ’s perfect offering of himself as the eternal sacrifice. In ancient times, sacrifices of animals, material goods, or even humans were offered to divine entities. These were ritual ceremonies forced upon the people as an act of worship or placation. Jesus, in revealing to all the one, true God, offers his own body & blood for our salvation. This perfect sacrifice has united us to the Father once more, & is the source & summit of our life in Christ.
