FAITH BOOK

BODY AND BLOOD OF CHRIST (A) June 7, 2026

Deuteronomy 8: 2-3, 14b-16a; Ps 147; 1 Cor. 10: 16-17; John 6: 51-58

Jude Siciliano, OP

Mini-reflections on the Sunday scripture readings designed for persons on the run. “Faith Book” is also brief enough to be posted in the Sunday parish bulletins people take home.

From today’s Deuteronomy reading:

Moses said to the people;

“Remember how for forty years now the Lord, your God,

has directed all your journeying in the desert....”

Reflection:

“Remember,” Moses instructs us. And so we do. We recall how the bread of life has fed us day by day, often in ways we did not recognize at first. But now we do and now, at this community meal, we remember and give thanks.

So, we ask ourselves:

·        The last time I went through a difficult period, who or what gave me strength to continue my desert journey?

·        How can I now serve the “bread of life” to another who is finding the daily journey hard?
