Sunday, August 19
XX SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME
Prv 9: 1-6
Eph 5: 15-20
Jn 6: 51-58
The Eucharist supports the soul, repairs our weaknesses, strengthens and gives cheer to the spirit. It is the true food of the soul (RSP 316-317).
From Father Tom: True, but here again we have the point I made more than once: what sort of effect can the Eucharist have on the average Sunday congregation? Even if the people receive worthily--which can be debated--is there any semblance of thanksgiving afterwards or any attempt to live better? (But perhaps we Reverends are at fault?)
Please Pray for Our Deceased: Fr. Nevio Picco SSP (1998)-- Sr. M. Pia Di Dio FSP (2003)-- Vermigliana Rossini HFI (2003)-- Sr. Angela Costanatin SGBP (2008)-- Ilva Cieri HFI (2008)-- Sr. M. Liliana Ventresca FSP (2010)-- Pius Lentini IAM (2011)
