HAPPY 70th ANNIVERSARY CORPUS CHRISTI CHURCH!
Seventy years ago today, on July 15, 1956, Corpus Christi Roman Catholic Church was established with 250 Catholic families.

In the early months, Mass was celebrated at a local restaurant and then later at the neighborhood public school, Shearn Elementary. Over 600 attended the first Sunday Masses. In 1957, a master plan was created, and the first church was built on the present site of the Parish Life Center. The church we now worship in (pictured) was built in 1968.

Father Tom, we send you with our blessings and deep gratitude. May God continue to shine on you and through you in your new home in San Antonio.

Most of you know that our dear Father Tom is being transferred to San Antonio. On Corpus Christi Sunday, June 7, at 5pm in Prefontaine Hall, we will celebrate him before his move. Father Tom has been a part of this parish for thirteen years, first as our much-loved Pastor and most recently as Hospital Chaplain ministering to those in hospitals. Our parishioners, parish staff, school staff, faculty and our school children have all been richly graced and blessed by Father Tom during his time here at Corpus. We are sad to see him go but we know that God Our Father will continue to bless him as he goes and will always hold him in the palm of His hand. Please join us in celebrating him and wishing him well. Please bring a dish to share.

Join Pope Leo in praying the rosary for peace.

To accompany his constant calls for peace in the world, Pope Leo XIV will lead the prayer of the Holy Rosary on May 30 at 7:00 PM Rome time from the Vatican Gardens.

He will lead the faithful in Shrines around the world in praying the Joyful Mysteries, with each decade being dedicated specifically for those affected by war and violence and entrusting them to the intercession of Mary, Queen of Peace.

The first mystery prays for the victims of war, especially the most vulnerable, while the second is for those who bring words of hope and the comfort of faith to populations affected by war. The third recalls the medical and paramedical personnel and volunteers who bring humanitarian aid every day.

The fourth mystery prays for those who suffer the violence of war, for prisoners and for all who endure humiliations that violate human dignity. The fifth and final Joyful Mystery is dedicated to praying for an end to war and the establishment of lasting peace in the world.
