Today is the Solemnity of the Body and Blood of Christ
O God, who in this wonderful Sacrament left us a memorial of Thy Passion: grant, we implore Thee, that we may so venerate the Sacred Mysteries of Thy Body and Blood, as always to be conscious of the fruit of Thy Redemption. https://t.co/rukVXjcWKT
