All the More Hungry and ThirstyWhat would happen if we were deprived of food and drink for months at a time? We would gradually weaken and die. For many Catholics, this is exactly what it felt like to be deprived of their weekly Sunday Mass because of the coronavirus pandemic that paralyzed the whole world in the spring of 2020. We were hungry and thirsty to receive the Body and Blood of Christ but had to make do with online liturgies, whether prerecorded or live. Paradoxically, we yearned to be physically present to that Most Holy Sacrament in which we believe the risen Lord Jesus is himself truly present, under the appearance of bread and wine transformed into his Body and Blood. Our physical absence highlighted all the more our hunger and thirst for the Eucharist, the real presence of Christ.
The Solemnity of the Body and Blood of Christ, originally called in Latin Corpus Christi (Body of Christ), celebrates in a visible way this central element of our Catholic faith. It grew out of popular piety and originally involved in processions through the streets with a consecrated host displayed for all to venerate. Although it was formally established in the 30th century – with the prodding of St. Thomas Aquinas – its roots go back to Scripture. It is intimately tied to the “Lord’s Supper” (1 Cor 11:20) celebrated on Holy Thursday.
Most important are Jesus’ own words at the Last Supper, recorded in Sunday’s Gospel. He took bread and identified himself with it, saying to his disciples, “Take it: this is my body.” He did the same things with a cup of wine, explaining, “This is my blood of the covenant, which will be shed for many.” Bread and wine transformed miraculously into his Body and Blood! A self-sacrifice that he willingly shared with his followers. An entirely new covenant that no longer requires holocaust offerings of bulls, goats, and calves but offers one ultimate sacrifice: the Lord’s own Body and Blood shed for the world’s salvation. The Eucharist is food for our earthly journey. It sustains us in hope and joy while preparing us for the eternal banquet of heaven.

Todos los más Hambrientos y Sedientos¿Qué pasaría si estuviéramos privados de comida y bebida durante meses? Poco a poco nos debilitaríamos y moriríamos. Para muchos católicos, esto es exactamente lo que se siente al verse privados de su misa dominical semanal debido a la pandemia del coronavirus que paralizó al mundo entero en la primavera de 2020. Teníamos hambre y sed de recibir el Cuerpo y la Sangre de Cristo, pero no teníamos para arreglárselas con liturgias en línea, ya sean pregrabadas o en vivo. Paradójicamente, anhelamos estar físicamente presentes en ese Santísimo Sacramento en el que creemos que el Señor Jesús resucitado está verdaderamente presente, bajo la apariencia de pan y vino transformados en su Cuerpo y Sangre. Nuestra ausencia física resaltó aún más nuestra hambre y sed de la Eucaristía, la presencia real de Cristo.
La Solemnidad del Cuerpo y la Sangre de Cristo, originalmente llamada en latín Corpus Christi (Cuerpo de Cristo), celebra de manera visible este elemento central de nuestra fe católica. Surgió de la piedad popular y originalmente participó en procesiones por las calles con una hostia consagrada exhibida para que todos la veneren. Aunque se estableció formalmente en el siglo 30, con la insistencia de Santo Tomás de Aquino, sus raíces se remontan a las Escrituras. Está íntimamente ligado a la "Cena del Señor" (1 Co 11,20) que se celebra el Jueves Santo.
Las más importantes son las propias palabras de Jesús en la Última Cena, registradas en el Evangelio del domingo. Tomó pan y se identificó con él, diciendo a sus discípulos: "Tomen: este es mi cuerpo". Hizo lo mismo con una copa de vino y explicó: "Esto es mi sangre del pacto, que por muchos será derramada". ¡Pan y vino transformados milagrosamente en su Cuerpo y Sangre! Un autosacrificio que compartió de buen grado con sus seguidores. Un pacto completamente nuevo que ya no requiere ofrendas del holocausto de toros, cabras y terneros, sino que ofrece un sacrificio supremo: el propio Cuerpo y la Sangre del Señor derramados por la salvación del mundo. La Eucaristía es alimento para nuestro camino terrenal. Nos sostiene en la esperanza y el gozo mientras nos prepara para el banquete eterno del cielo. -
