First Friday Conference June 2021
This First Friday coming between the feasts of Corpus Christi and Sacred Heart points out the unity between these truths of the Faith.  We learn from Our Lord how much humility is a foundational virtue for Him and in our own spiritual life.  The complementary virtues are magnanimity and magnificence.  In the Holy Eucharist Christ lives in a state of humility and the Mass is the means of bringing this to us.  The eucharistic miracle of Lanciano shows this humility of the Sacred Heart.  The creation and conservation of all that is comes through Jesus and is recalled and honored at Mass, particularly the minor elevation.  Unfortunately, all too many, especially impious Catholics, insult our humble Savior in His loving Sacrament.
