Corpus Christi: An Offering

The Corpus Christi or Body of Christ, the Blessed Sacrament of the Eucharist, is the "source and summit" of the entire Christian life (Lumen Gentium, Ecclesia de Eucharistia).  Jesus offers Himself for the salvation of the world, but He also invited us to offer ourselves in union with Him.  We pray for the grace to make that offering and to be more united to Christ in our daily lives, bearing great fruit for the Kingdom of God.
