MOST HOLY BODY AND BLOOD OF CHRIST – JUNE 3, 2018
MEMORIAL OPPORTUNITIES
We have had a very positive response to our memorial fund which allows people to donate any amount in memory of a loved one (living or deceased) in commemorating special events in their lives (births,
baptisms, marriages, weddings, anniversaries, ordinations, special birthdays, in thanksgiving or other milestones). We have been able to purchase and pay for new vestments and stoles – before we had no matching vestments or concelebrant stoles - and new flagons (pitchers) for the consecration of the Precious Blood of Christ. The Paschal Candle was donated through a generous donation to the fund. Not everyone can afford to buy a single item so it is nice to be able to contribute towards it. An acknowledgement is sent to those who are being remembered or honored as well as a personal thank you to those who contribute. Please see Fr. Jim or call him at the Parish Center at 201-666-1100 for more information or to contribute to the memorial fund.

MOST HOLY BODY AND BLOOD OF CHRIST
“Prayer is not asking. Prayer is putting one’s self in the hands of God, at His disposition, and listening to His voice in the depths of our hearts.” — St. Teresa of Calcutta
PPastoral Reflection
Spiritual and Religious
Our word spiritual comes from the Latin, spiritus (spirit) and means “of, relating to or affecting the spirit, the soul as opposed to material or physical things.” Certainly in a world of materialism and consumerism like ours, being spiritual is something to be commended and encouraged. Our word religious also comes from a Latin word, ligare: to bind or connect-- think of ligaments and how ligaments function in the human anatomy. In its roots, then, the word religious has a very physical connotation: to be religious is to be connected—connected to God - and connected to other believers.
That is just what Sunday worship is all about: connecting--connecting, through praise and thanksgiving with God and connecting with others who share our faith. Simply, to be religious is to be connected, to be connected with God and with other believers. By attending Mass, you are being religious.
Being spiritual and religious are not opposites. To the contrary, they have a lot in common, so much so that, truly, you cannot have one without the other. We are human beings who are embodied souls - or ensouled bodies, depending on how you look at it. Created by God, we have a God-given desire to have a spiritual life, but, because we are human beings, born and made of flesh and blood and bone and ligaments, we experience the spiritual through our humanity, through our physical, and religious connections. That is the case for anyone who believes in God and who believe in Christ, the Word of God, who became flesh and blood and bone and ligaments for us.
Our Catholic faith is spiritual because it is based in our belief in God who is spirit but also religious, which is to say it is filled with ligaments, with connections linking and binding us to God and to our life and to our life in communion and in common with one another in Christ. No one becomes a believer out of nowhere. We do not come to faith by a purely spiritual path. We are led to faith by others, by our connection to the lives and witness of other believers. We are linked in faith through the Word of Scripture, written by others, proclaimed by others and preached by others. We are connected, linked with others in faith through the Sacraments we celebrate and receive. We are bound together in the prayer we share with others at the Lord’s Table and by the power of God’s Spirit moving in us, through us and among us always.
Our spiritual lives are experienced and realized through the connections we make with God, through others, in the faith we share. Being a Christian is as much an affair of the body as it is of the spirit. That is because we are human beings and all human experience, including our spiritual lives, is mediated through our bodies and our relationships with others. Even the Trinity, the way we come to know and try to understand who God is, even the Trinity shows us the importance of being connected, the Trinity is three persons, all in one in God: Father, Son and Spirit, in a community of love.
