2013 Archbishop’s Catholic Appeal
Everything we have—our families, friends, careers,
possessions-is a gift from our heavenly Father. Let
us express our appreciation by investing a portion of
our God-given gifts in the 2013 Archbishop’s Catholic Appeal which, in turn, will translate into hope for
those in despair and help for those in need.

God’s Golden Rule: “Do to others whatever you would have them do to
you.”
(Mt 7:12) “Jesus is saying we need to reflect on what we’d love to have
others do for us, and then get up, go and figure out how to give this very
thing to them.
I don’t know about you, but sometimes, a lot of times, I’m just too tired to
be thinking of how to amaze others with the love and kindness I wish they
gave to me. Or, I think that someone else doesn’t deserve that attention. Today’s saying is hard because it is concrete. You just can’t get
around it because it is so doable and so real.”
By Sr. Kathryn James Hermes, F.S.P.
LIVING THE EUCHARIST DAILY
Brother Randy
I cannot recall how many times I have read
and meditating with the book: Key to the Doctrine of the Eucharist. It has been my Vade
Mecum since my Novice Director gave it to
me in 1949. I have read and studied, and perused dozens of books and treatises on the
Eucharist, and yet I return to this book again
and again for my writings and my meditations.
Dom Vonier, O.S.B. captured my recently
converted heart and soul with his book written
in 1925. Fortunately it has been printed again
and again and is available. Remember I was a
Jewish lad entering into the Church less than a
year before I read this book and having it become my constant companion.
Of course, it does not make too much difference which tome you read or pray over in
regards to the Eucharist, but you would do
well to find one that provides the depth and
profundity of this volume. In this day and age,
especially, where so many of our brethren do
not believe in the sacredness of the Holy
Eucharist, we all would do well to become
deeply informed about the Eucharist, and how
it is the center of our worship, our spiritual
life, our Church. The significance of the
Eucharist in the worship of Christians today is
obvious to many people. The Catholic Church
is the only Church and worshipping communion that can trace the Eucharist, the Body and
Blood of Christ Himself, all the way back to
the Last Supper. All other groups profess that
they have the Eucharist or a semblance of the
Eucharist, a representation of the Body and
Blood of Christ Jesus, the Son of God, but
only the Catholic Church has the true Eucharist and this through the Sacred Priesthood
which was also the immediate legacy of the
Last Supper wherein the Disciples became the
first priests.
In our lives, in all of our daily lives, the need
for spiritual sustenance is primary. Christ the
Son of God knew this and thus established not
only His Church and its royal priesthood, but
initiated the true Eucharist, His Flesh and
Blood. “UNLESS YOU EAT MY FLESH
AND DRINK MY BLOOD YOU SHALL
NOT HAVE LIFE IN YOU.” 20 centuries of
the most Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, celebrated every single day in thousands of places
all over the planet earth, wherein the Holy
Spirit, the 3rd Person of the Trinity, changes
the bread and wine into the Body and Blood of
Christ our Saviour, as He did at the Last Supper. Do you actively participate in this holy
endeavor each day, attending Holy Mass and
feasting upon the Body and Blood of Christ?
He made it so available because of the needs
He knew we would face every day of our
lives, and of the mandate He gave us to “go
forth and baptize…” We need Divine strength
and we need Sacred and Holy Grace to fulfill
the mandate He has given to all of us.
Here is the daily opportunity to speak directly
to Christ the Son of God, every day, and to be
nurtured and nourished by His True and Real
physical Body and Blood. The significance of
His being so close at all times...
