Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ – June 7, 2026

Gospel: John 6:51-58

Reflection: Jesus stated, “Whoever eats this bread will live forever.”
A charitable gift annuity becomes a way for believers to share in Christ’s mission of providing life giving bread and to be generous while providing nourishment to our parish.

Takeaway of the week: Let us continue to eat this bread and live forever.
What can I render to the Lord for all he has done for me? (Psalm 116:12-13)
As stewards of our faith, you can express your gratitude for God’s gifts and help ensure that God’s work on earth continues by considering a charitable gift annuity.
When you establish a charitable gift annuity with the archdiocese, not only will you receive fixed payments for life, but you can
designate your parish as the remainder beneficiary.
