Sunday Homily - What does Corpus Christi mean for us today in 2026?

Today we celebrate Corpus Christi. It is not always easy to explain, but its core belief is that Jesus did not leave us just a memory but is still very much with us. The Eucharist is not a reminder of Jesus as a historical figure, but that Jesus still continues to nourish, strengthen and journey with his people. Love always looks for a way to remain present.

Bread is one of the world's most staple foods nourishing millions of people. Fresh bread tastes beautiful. Old stale bread is tastes awful. When we receive communion it is a beautiful fresh moment. We are touched and blessed with God's love. The presence of Jesus is with us.

Communion gives us life and hope.
Communion gives us courage and strength on our daily journey.
Communion is a personal moment.
Communion is a personal connection.
It is God blessing you with love.

Corpus Christi reminds us that God’s love always finds a way to be present. The Eucharist is a living gift and always will be.

The Sisters expressed their gratitude for this wonderful blessing. All who ask for the prayers of the Sisters were remembered and included in the prayers and blessings.

As part of the 100 Hours for 100 Years celebrations at St. Peter and St. Paul’s Church in preparation for the 100th Anniversary of the Eucharistic Procession, we invite parishes, families, and friends to take part in special Holy Hours during our 100 hours of continuous Eucharistic Adoration.

These dedicated hours offer an opportunity to come before Jesus in the Eucharist in prayer. Whether you can stay for a few minutes or the full hour, your presence and prayers will be a blessing.
