Sunday 20th Week

Heavenly Bread Jn. 6:52-59



There are all kinds of bread available 

From wheat to rye to raisin. 

And they all feed the body. 


There is only one Heavenly Bread

That feeds the soul. 

The Body and Blood of Jesus. 


Many people today choose to feed their flesh and starve their souls. 

And this is the problem with society today. 


The flesh however will die one day.  

And then what?


Those who eat His Flesh and Drink His Blood

Will have Eternal Life 


And this Heavenly Bread is only served 

at the Table of the Lord here at Mass. 

Nowhere else. 


While what we eat and drink at Mass appears as bread and wine,

In reality

It is transformed into the Body of Christ that was given up for us and His Blood that was poured out for the forgiveness of sins. 


 If we receive the Body and Blood of Christ. 

Then We must become what we receive. 


And if we become what we receive;

Then not only are we transformed into another Christ;

But our world is transformed as well.
