St Thomas Aquinas - O precious and wonderful banquet!


I don’t know how many people have access to the Divine Office. The office of Matins has as the second reading for today this piece from the works of St Thomas Aquinas on the feast of Corpus Christi. It is entitled “O precious and wonderful banquet”. I felt I had to share it with those of you who don’t have access to the Divine Office on today's feast of Corpus Christi.

Deeper Understanding Of Real Presence


Mark Cogitates - Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion

A few days ago my wife brought home from the parish a copy of the Archdiocesan Newspaper for the Archdiocese of Johannesburg. In it I came across, to my horror, an article entitled “Eucharistic Ministers Must Carry Christ In Their Hands”. Why to my horror? Well the reason is that the article was about a workshop that the Liturgical Department of the archdiocese held for Catholic laity.
