CORPUS CHRISTI

"Corpus Christi is to counter man’s forgetfulness, to elicit his thankfulness, and it has something to do with fellowship, with that unifying power which is at work where people are looking for the one Lord. A great deal could be said about this; for with our computers, meetings and appointments we have become appallingly thoughtless and forgetful."


Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger
(now POPE BENEDICT XVI)
Feast of Faith
(pp. 128-9)
