Our Daily Bread

The Feast Of Corpus Christi 2016

This important sermon by Fr. Superior includes many beautiful and valuable thoughts and it really should be listened to by all who value their Faith.  It begins by exploding the myths regarding the Eucharist that are held by some including, most regrettably, Catholics.  The Eucharist is not merely a symbol or memorial but a reenactment, a reliving on the Altar of Christ’s sacrifice and death on the cross.  It is the foundation of all that has been done in Christendom – all the beauty, all the edifices, churches, schools and especially the work of the clergy and hierarchy to sustain and grow the true Faith throughout the world.  It is why the Servants of the Holy Family take such care of the Altar and vestments used in the Mass.  We are also admonished that we too must preserve and defend this great gift that is given to us – most especially in these times when the Feast of Corpus Christi is so often ignored, despite the clear words of Christ to Blessed Juliana that it be established and honored throughout His Holy Church.

The Food of Christian Souls

The Feast of Corpus Christi 2015
There have been innumerable Eucharistic miracles throughout the history of the Church.  In this greatest of all the sacraments, Our Lord is contained, offered, and received.  The priest speaks in the person of Christ when he says, “This is My Body.”  After transubstantiation takes place, the priest holds in his hand the Author of Creation.  We should look at the Host at the elevation and adore our God.  Christ desired to come in the manner of food because He wished to be united with us in such a way that it is as if we are essentially one.  Although Christ is alive, He comes to us in the state of death.  Sacramentally there is renewed Christ’s sacrifice in the Holy Eucharist, so our sufferings may be identified with His.

God’s Secret

Trinity Sunday 2015
There are two days in the liturgical year on which the establishment of a feast day has been requested by Heaven directly, one of which being the feast of Corpus Christi.  We should know the details of the establishment of this feast, which was meant to combat the future attacks against the Holy Eucharist.

Our Lord commanded that all nations be converted and baptized in the name of the Holy Trinity.  Every Mass begins with the invocation of the Holy Trinity in the Sign of the Cross.  There are numerous symbols in the Church which express the doctrine of the Holy Trinity.  The Kyrie and the Gloria of the Mass proclaim and praise the Triune God

Definition Of Priestly Life

Sermon From The Feast Of
Corpus Christi 2014
The priesthood was established with Christ’s words, “do this in memory of Me.”  The entire purpose of the priesthood is for the worship of God, through the Holy Eucharist.  This great gift of the Blessed Sacrament is envied by many who are outside the Church.  Catholics stand up in defense of the Eucharist because we know it is the true presence of God, and not simply symbolic.  It is a living memorial of the sacrifice of Christ on the cross.  We do not believe in the trans-signification of the modernists, but the dogma of transubstantiation.

The Sole Means of Salvation

Sermon On
Holy Thursday 2014
This day we celebrate the institution of the Mass, the Holy Eucharist, and the Priesthood – the only vocation created directly by God.  The saints tell us that it would be easier for us to exist without the Sun than without the Mass.  Our presence at the Mass shows God’s love for us, because He gives us the grace to come, and it allows us to show our love, fidelity, and loyalty to Him.  God has promised a great reward to those who stand with Him, and we know that it is only through the Mass that we will receive that reward.  Let us make reparation and proclaim our loyalty through the Sacrifice of the Altar.

The Angelic Doctor

Conference About St. Thomas Aquinas
1st Friday, March 2014
St. Thomas Aquinas belies the statement of atheists who claim that all religious people are ignorant.  Although St. Thomas offered astounding insights in philosophy, it was his prayer that helped him penetrate truth so profoundly.  His method for explaining the doctrines of the Faith has been admired even by the enemies of the Church.  The liturgy of Corpus Christi, which was written and compiled by him, is considered one of the most beautiful of the entire liturgical year.

The Sign Of His Love

Sermon From
The Feast Of The Precious Blood 2013
The shedding of Our Lord’s Precious Blood is a sublime and essential truth of our Faith.  Many clergy and laity have easily fallen away because they did not appreciate this and other truths of God.  We fall by degrees and not mortally immediately.  We must maintain our fervor and love in this life because it is more important on earth than knowing much.  We can only love that for which we have suffered.  The history of this feast shows its importance in modern times to overcome the particular dangers that attack Christ and His Mystical Body.  The Blood of the Savior redeemed us and is the everlasting token of how much He loves us.  We are granted to receive this life giving refreshment whenever we receive Holy Communion.

My Happiest Day

Sermon From
2nd Sunday After Pentecost 2013
Today our children receive their First Holy Communion. Our Lord left us this sacrament so we would not be orphans when He ascended into heaven. The Holy Eucharist and the special graces given by Christ will help us to reach heaven. The state of grace in us means that the Holy Trinity lives inside us. With such strength we are able to resist the enemies of God. Ask Our Lord to make us good and bring us all to live with Him forever. This is the happiest day of our lives and we should receive Holy Communion often, even daily.

Draw All Things To Myself

Sermon From
The Feast Of Corpus Christi 2013
St. Bonaventure warned that removal of the Blessed Sacrament from the Church would leave the people like a herd of animals. St. Paul in the Epistle gives a monitum about irreverence to the Holy Eucharist in his day. What about our times? This feast has a special history because of its origin around a miracle. St. Thomas Aquinas composed the texts for this Mass and today’s Divine Office. The teaching about this sacred gift from God is clear and separates our true Church from all other false religions. Christ died to give us Himself in this way and it is sacrilegious, ungrateful and irreverent to treat the Sacrament of His Body and Blood in anything less than a loving and devout manner.

The Promise of Holy Communion

2nd Sunday after Pentecost 2012

First Communion Sunday

The death of Our Lord was constituted by the shedding of His Precious Blood, but it was the intentionality of the Savior which made that act meritorious.  It was His conscious and deliberate consent to the surrender of His life that redeemed us.  The feast of the Sacred Heart is the assurance of Christ’s love for us.

The reason why the first communicants dress of for their important day is to reflect the preparation of their souls to receive Our Lord.  Christ has promised to all those who receive him in Holy Communion that He will bring them to Heaven and raise up their bodies on the last day.  We must renew our trust and gratitude to Our Lord for the great gift of the Blessed Sacrament, and promise to receive Him often throughout our lives.
