PRAY: CORPUS CHRISTI NOVENA | DAY 6: In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
The Sacrifice of the Cross
As the Solemnity of Corpus Christi approaches, we recall Christ’s gift of himself upon the cross, the wellspring of the Church’s Sacraments.
But when they came to Jesus and saw that he was already dead, they did not break his legs, but one soldier thrust his lance into his side, and immediately blood and water flowed out. – John 19:33-34
(Mention your intentions here…and for an outpouring of the Holy Spirit on the diocesan-wide 40 Hours Adoration campaign and the Corpus Christi Mass & Procession on June 21.)
Into your hands I commend my spirit.
You will redeem me, O LORD, O faithful God.Concluding Prayer
O God, who in this wonderful Sacrament have left us a memorial of your Passion, grant us, we pray, so to revere the sacred mysteries of your Body and Blood that we may always experience in ourselves the fruits of your redemption. Who live and reign with God the Father in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God, for ever and ever. Jesus, Eternal High Priest, grant us the grace to offer our lives in union with you, as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to the Father. Amen.
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
