Thought for the day: The church is like the human person: we are both body and spirit at the one time. The body of Christ, which is what we are, has both a bodily reality (membership, structure and sacraments) and a spiritual reality (the life of faith and prayer, the indwelling Spirit). The institutional and the prophetic dimensions of Church are sometimes in tension and that is really normal. To be part of the living body of Christ is to hear again Jesus’ question, who do you say I am? As St Paul reminds us, no one can say “Jesus is Lord” except by the Holy Spirit (1 Cor 12:3). Prayer: Christ, Son of the living God, you call us to confess your name and to acknowledge you as Lord. Help us to live our faith and find new words for what we believe so that we may proclaim your Gospel to our contemporaries in words they can understand. Fr Kieran O’Mahony.

Pope’s Intention for July: For Formation in Discernment. Let us pray that we might again learn how to discern, to know how to choose paths of life and reject everything that leads us away from Christ and the Gospel.

Pope Leo XIV on X: Christ is God’s answer to our human hunger, because his Body is the bread of eternal life. When we partake of Jesus, the living and true Bread, we live for him. By offering himself completely, the crucified and risen Lord delivers himself into our hands, and we realize that we were made to partake of God.

Pope Leo XIV’s prayer to the Sacred Heart of Jesus.
Lord, I come to your tender heart today,
to you who have words that set my heart ablaze, to you who pour out compassion on the little ones and the poor, on those who suffer, and on all human miseries.
I desire to know you more, to contemplate you in the Gospel, to be with you and learn from you and from the charity with which you allowed yourself to be touched by all forms of poverty.
You showed us the Father’s love by loving us without measure with your divine and human heart. Grant all your children the grace of encountering you.
Change, shape, and transform our plans,
so that we seek only you in every circumstance: in prayer, in work, in encounters, and in our daily routine.
From this encounter, send us out on mission,
a mission of compassion for the world
in which you are the source from which all consolation flows. Amen.
