Pastor's Reflection
Solemnity of Corpus Christi 2022
Dear Friends,
Today is the awesome Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ or Corpus Christi Sunday. Today, we acknowledge and affirm our undying belief that the bread and wine consecrated at the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass ceases as bread and wine and truly, really, substantially becomes Jesus, His Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity. The Holy Eucharist is not a symbol nor a mere remembrance of our Lord. He chooses to draw near to us humbly in the Holy Eucharist to fill us with His divine Presence and grace. He gives us access into the intimate Communion of Love who is God, Father, Son, Holy Spirit.

Dear Friends,
Pentecost Sunday, last weekend, was most inspiring. It is a profound feast and extraordinary reminder of who we become through Baptism and Confirmation, as God dwells within our souls. Adding to the joy of the feast was the return of two newly ordained who served here during their Seminary years, Father Sang Woo Chi, and Deacon Anthony Albanese at the 12 Noon Mass. And then, the parish Pentecost picnic in our parking lot was very awesome. The good weather allowed for fun, games, festivities, food, and a good time. Thanks to the Young Adult ministry members who organized the event.

Dear Friends,
What a joy to welcome back our transitional deacon and now priest, Father Andrew Auletta last weekend for Mass and a cordial and delightful reception. My deep heartfelt thanks to all those who worked on the reception from set up to clean up under the guidance of Geraldine Petr, Maureen Bulwicz, Angela Lewis, and Laura Jusko. The food was plentiful and delicious, and the cafeteria looked festive.
