The Holy Eucharist was as essential to Blessed Kateri’s life as the sun in the sky is to ours.  For the Holy Eucharist, of which the Native American symbol is the sun, was the very heartbeat of her life.  As Ruth Oswald writes, “in view of her devotion to the Blessed Sacrament, she may also be called ‘Lily of the Holy Eucharist.’”

"Perpetual Eucharistic Adoration with exposition needs a great push. People ask me: 'What will convert America and save the world?' My answer is prayer. What we need is for every parish to come before Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament in holy hours of prayer."
- Mother Teresa of Calcutta

Adoration of Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament


We will read this Sunday's Gospel  together 

in preparation for the Fifteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time

Luke 10:25-37


Reflection Questions:

1. What struck you most in this passage?  
What did you notice that you hadn't noticed before?

2. What can we do to increase our reverance for and appreciation for Christ?

3. When we have moral or religious question, as did this scholar, where should we go with them ?

4. What would the "Good Samaritan" be doing if he were in our place today?

Further reading: Catechism of the Catholic Church, 1822-1829, 1846-1848,1939-1942.
