Welcome to ALIVE with Fr. Jonathan Meyer.
This weekend the Church celebrates the Solemnity of Corpus Christi—the Body and Blood of Christ.
In John 6, Jesus makes an astonishing promise:
“Unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink His blood, you do not have life within you.”
These words reveal the incredible gift of the Eucharist. Where sin brought death into the world, Jesus now offers His very life to us through Holy Communion.
In this reflection, Fr. Jonathan shares:
- The beauty of Corpus Christi and Eucharistic devotion
- Why the Eucharist is the heart of Catholic life
- A touching story about children counting their Communions
- How gratitude can transform our relationship with Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament
Take some time this week to sit with John Chapter 6 in the presence of the Eucharist. Allow the Lord to deepen your love for this great gift and to renew your gratitude for His Real Presence.
“He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in me and I in him.”
