Feast of Corpus Christi (Transferred), June 6th, 2021

 Feast of Corpus Christi (Transferred), June 6th, 2021


It has been a long, strange journey.  It started some fifteen months ago and I thought it would never end, quite frankly.  But it is finally over.  We are allowed to finally gather together as God's family and celebrate Mass together in the little chapel we have called home for almost ten years.  And I would dare say that it is fitting that we are allowed to gather together this week because this week the Church celebrates the Feast of Corpus Christi.  This is the feast where we remember specifically the great gift of the Most Precious Body and Blood of Christ.  And we will celebrate this great Feast when we gather together on Sunday, June 6th!  We will stop to think how blessed we are to be able to receive the Most Precious Body and Blood of Our Blessed Saviour when we gather together as God's family at Mass.  Take some time out of your busy schedule and pull your Bible out and read the Sixth Chapter of St. John's Gospel.  Take some time to read this wonderful chapter.  In this chapter we will read Our Lord say:  "My flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed. He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, dwelleth in me, and I in him" (St. John, Chapter 6)  Read the Sixth Chapter of St. John's Gospel and you will soon discover that this truly is a love story written to us.  This is because it is the testimony of how much Our Blessed Saviour truly loves us.  We know this because we hear in this chapter how Our Blessed Saviour gives to each one of us His Most Precious Body and Blood.  We know this because He gives of  Himself as nourishment for our souls.  We know this because Our Blessed Saviour did not simply give us a mere token of His love.  He did not just give us a remembrance of His feelings for us.  He did not simply give us a trinket to remind us that He loves us.  No, He gave us the greatest gift we could ever receive in this world.  He gave of Himself.  He gave to us His Most Precious Body and Blood.   This is why we should gather together as God's family and attend Mass faithfully.  This is why we should never take this gift for granted.  This is why we should never take this opportunity for granted ever again, quite frankly.  

St. Margaret Church meets each and every Sunday at 10:30 AM at the beautiful chapel at Marquette Manor, located at 8140 N. Township Line Road on the Northwest side of Indianapolis.  Join us as we hear the Word of God found in the 1928 Book of Common Prayer and the King James Bible.  Come dedicate one hour of your week to God.  Step away from the busy-ness of the world for just one hour and focus totally on God.  Come and worship Him.  Let Him feed you spiritually.   Receive the Precious Body and Blood at Communion time.  

NOTE:  Keep in mind that we must enter in the main entrance of the lobby and sign in before we go to the chapel.  

   Join us as we take time to listen to the Word of God; to hear what God is saying to each one of us.  Worship God is traditional worship.  Receive His Most Precious Body and Blood at Communion time.
