It is not just a thing that we receive however reverently it is a person, a relationship, a belonging and a transformation that we consume, that becomes part of us: Receive what you are the Body of Christ. The readings invite us to reflect on how our celebration of the Eucharist brings Christs words to our reality: who eats my flesh and drink my blood lives in me and I live in him. The people of the Old Testament had God living in their midst, walking with them on their journey, feeding and nourishing them with the gift of manna from heaven. Jesus walks with us, not looking on from afar, journeying in communion with us&nbsp; living within us, as we eat and drink the gifts he extends from the Last Supper. And as Saint Paul reminds us, our communion with the One Christ is also a communion with each other&nbsp; God lives in us as the Church, as we become His Body.<\/p>\n<p>To view and download a copy of the Weekly Newsletter click <a href=\"https:\/\/11host.me\/stmary\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/2023\/06\/110623 CorpusChristiA.pdf\">HERE<\/a><\/p>\n<p>To view and download a copy of the Prayers of the Faithful click <a href=\"https:\/\/11host.me\/stmary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/110623 CorpusChristiABidding.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">HERE<\/a><\/p>\n<p>To make a donation click <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mygivinghub.com\/detailed\/donate?charity_id=1086324&amp;type=2&amp;reference=Y18&amp;amount=\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">HERE<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Most Holy Body &amp; Blood of Christ &#8211; Year A &#8211; The Eucharist the Body and Blood of Christ is a mystery with so many layers and a depth&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"excerpt-read-more btn btn-primary\" href=\"https:\/\/11host.me\/stmary\/parish-newsletter-for-corpus-christi-sunday-11th-june-2023\/\" title=\"ReadParish Newsletter for Corpus Christi Sunday 11th June 2023\">Read More<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":17490,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0},"categories":[9],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/11host.me\/stmary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17486"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/11host.me\/stmary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/11host.me\/stmary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/11host.me\/stmary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/6"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/11host.me\/stmary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=17486"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/11host.me\/stmary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17486\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":17491,"href":"https:\/\/11host.me\/stmary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17486\/revisions\/17491"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/11host.me\/stmary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/17490"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/11host.me\/stmary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=17486"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/11host.me\/stmary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=17486"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/11host.me\/stmary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=17486"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
