B. Stobnicki- Saturday within Corpus Christi Octave
« on: June 06, 2026, 04:22:39 PM »


AI voice and translation


On this first Saturday of the month of June 
we wish to make reparation for the numerous 
sins of blasphemy, sacrilege, 
in particular those directed against the worship 
of the Most Holy Sacrament. We want 
to ask for the swift triumph 
of the Immaculate Heart of the Most 
Blessed Virgin Mary, 
Mother of the Savior. 
After the Holy Mass, we will sing litanies in 
honor of the Heart of the Lord Jesus and will set out in 
procession, to once again 
express, confess our faith 
in the presence of the Lord Jesus in the Most Holy 
Sacrament, to publicly 
give Him honor and reverence. 
This part of reverence that the contemporary world 
no longer wishes to offer to the Lord Jesus. And 
after all, every creature is obliged to do so. 
Every person has received rational will so that they may recognize 
their Savior, love Him, and serve Him. 
My dear ones, as we remain in this octave 
of Corpus Christi, 
we contemplate 
God's love, we contemplate this great 
gift that Christ our Lord has left us in 
the form of the most holy sacrifice of the Holy Mass, 
in the form of the Most Holy 
Sacrament. 
We recognize that God's love 
for us humans is so great that even though 
Christ our Lord ascended into heaven and sits at 
the right hand of God the Father Almighty, 
from where He will come to judge the living and the dead, 
at the same time He dwells among us, 
humans here on earth. 
Hidden, 
silent, 
defenseless like a child, 
a prisoner of love, 
present in the Most Holy Sacrament, 
locked in the tabernacle, 
who comes when the Catholic priest offers the most holy 
sacrifice of the Holy Mass, thereby making 
the bloody sacrifice of Calvary present 
in a bloodless manner. 
We realize, my dear ones, that 
indeed 
the Most Holy Sacrament is the holiest 
and greatest 
[cough] among the seven 
sacraments of the new and eternal covenant. 
And that is because not only do we receive 
God's grace through this sacrament, 
but it contains the very giver 
of grace, our Lord Jesus Christ. 
The Savior 
in the Most Holy Sacrament, 
in the white host, in a bit of 
consecrated 
wine, is truly, 
really, 
substantially present. It is not just a sign, 
a symbol, but truly the body and blood, 
soul and divinity of our Lord Jesus 
Christ hidden under the appearances of bread and 
wine. 
Just as I repeat to you time and again, when 
we consume physical food, necessary to 
sustain 
our body in life, in a certain sense, we ennoble it, because from a 
dead thing, it becomes part of our 
human body. In the case of divine 
bread, 
in the case of the Most Holy Sacrament, 
it is quite the opposite. It is we 
who are ennobled by consuming 
the body and blood of our Lord Jesus 
Christ. 
It is we who transform, we ought to 
transform and conform to Him who 
feeds us. 
And when we realize 
who the Most Holy Sacrament is, when 
we realize that we stand in the presence of 
God Himself, who shed 
His blood on the cross to complete the work 
of redemption, 
could we not 
bow our knees before Him, before 
whom senseless animals fell? 
Could we, 
my dear ones, clap, dance 
during the most holy sacrifice of the Holy Mass, 
which is the presence 
of the sacrifice of Calvary? 
Could we 
turn the Holy Mass into a fair? Could 
we watch as the priest 
becomes an entertainer amusing 
the audience? 
Of course not, but we are perfectly aware 
that it is precisely after Vatican II that 
the liturgy was treated this way. 
God, not Christ, is no longer at the center 
of the new liturgy, 
but man. Man, whom the priest must entertain, 
must amuse, must ensure that he does not get bored. He must 
constantly come up with something new, more 
creative. 
The synodal path 
opens the way to a whole mass of abuses, 
some committees of laypersons, which will 
choose, decide how the liturgy 
should look. 
Dear faithful, we need to renew today 
our faith in the real presence of Christ in 
the Most Holy Sacrament, so that through 
this faith we may penetrate what 
our physical eyes do not see. And this faith 
is particularly needed today, 
when it is being destroyed, when it is fading. 
Not long ago, there were reports in the media 
about a situation that took 
place in Switzerland in the diocese of Chur, 
a diocese that was once led by a 
supposedly conservative 
bishop, Honder, who was later 
made a bishop of the Society of Saint 
Pius X allowed to serve in 
the chapels and churches of that society. And 
it is from the diocese of Chur that we repeatedly receive information 
about 
terrible blasphemies and 
sacrileges. There is the lady in a green 
sweater standing at the altar concelebrating 
with the pastor. She stretches out her hands, utters 
the words of consecration. Recently, it turned out 
that there was, as it was termed, an incident. 
And what is hidden under this word incident? 
That Holy Communion was given to dogs. 
But no one said that this is 
sacrilege, that it is an offense against God. 
It was said that it was an incident and 
the faithful were instructed. 
Instructed. What does that even mean, 
my dear? We hear in the sequence 
of today's Holy Mass. 
Behold, the divine bread of angels for pilgrims 
in the valley, for the sons of the 
Bringer of Light. Bread is not to be thrown to dogs. 
The Lord Jesus said in the Gospel: "Do not 
give to dogs what is holy." And who 
would have expected that these words 
of the Savior would need to be read so 
literally, 
that the post-conciliar 
sect would distribute communion, that they think is the 
Body of Christ, to dogs. 
Dear faithful, 
probably time and again 
participating, observing 
the solemn processions 
on Corpus Christi, 
we wonder why, in fact, 
we go out with the Lord Jesus into the streets 
of our 
towns and villages. 
But shouldn’t we ask ourselves the 
opposite question, 
namely why does the Lord Jesus 
go out with us 
to the world? 
And we could repeat after St. 
Peter, Quo vadis, Domine. 
Where are you going, Lord? 
2000 years ago, 
Saint Peter heard from the Redeemer's lips: 
"Peter, when you abandon my people, 
I am going to Rome to be crucified there 
for the umpteenth time." 
At that time, the Lord Jesus was going to pagan 
Rome, from which St. Peter was fleeing. 
And today, my dear, when we think of 
the Feast of Corpus Christi, of these 
contemporary 
processions, of walks, 
we realize 
that our Polish land has also become 
pagan land. 
Are we really that different from that 
godless, 
demonic 
Rome of the time of Caesar Nero? 
After all, more and more around us 
hatred of the Christian religion. 
More and more liberalism, 
modernism, 
materialist atheism. 
And while there are still many people who go out 
onto the streets of our Polish towns and villages on 
Corpus Christi, 
they probably go out 
out of habit, 
because it is necessary, 
because it is some sort of entertainment. Probably, very few 
realize what 
this procession is for and what it expresses. 
And just as the wind blew away the petals of flowers that adorned 
the path for the Lord Jesus, so quickly 
all appearances, remnants 
of any Eucharistic devotion, 
any faith that Christ 
is truly present in the Most Holy Sacrament is disappearing. 
Dear faithful, 
we could 
ask the Lord Jesus 
Quo vadis, Domine, where are you going, Lord? And surely 
we would hear the answer today. 
I am going to your town, I am going to your village, 
to where the godless people 
crucified me for the umpteenth time. 
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.

The Feast of the Immaculate Heart of Mary

History of the feast of the Immaculate Heart of Mary

Today we celebrate Mary's Immaculate Heart!

Where does this liturgical feast come from?

  Pius VII (1800 – 1823) granted a "Feast of the Very Pure Heart of Mary" to some churches, on the Sunday of the octave of the Assumption, then Pius IX (1846 - 1878) renewed this authorization. It was finally inscribed in the universal liturgical calendar in 1942 by Pius XII, and set for 22 August, the Octavian day of the Assumption.

  Then the Pope instituted another feast in 1954, that of Queenship of Mary, so that each year "we renew the consecration of the human race to the Immaculate Heart of the Blessed Virgin Mary". This was set for May 31.

  During the liturgical reforms of Paul VI in 1969,... while the feast of Mary Queen went from May 31 to August 22.
  Following Pius XII, the world is dedicated to the Immaculate Heart of Mary...


Homily for the Feast of the Immaculate Heart of Mary

    Once Saint Dominic Savio appeared to Don Bosco, he asked him: “My dear Dominic, tell me: you who have practised all your life these beautiful virtues, what comforted you the most at the time of your death? Dominique Savio replied: “What comforted me the most when I died was the assistance of Mary, Mother of Jesus! Tell the children! Never forget to pray to her in their lifetime. "

  This small episode allows us to thank once again Our Lord for giving us His Mother as our Mother. And what a Mother! The Immaculate Conception, the masterpiece of creation, the one all pure. How right and proper it is to celebrate the Immaculate Heart of Mary. That is why the Feast of this day must stimulate us to have towards our heavenly mother ever more filial and grateful attention. She's doing so much for us.

  Moreover, the Father, in the rule, has marked that it is a duty for the community to spread devotion to the Immaculate Heart of Mary. So let us also be apostles of this Heart to those we will meet this summer and throughout our lives.

...Jesus had told St. Margaret Mary that we must constantly use his wounds to offer them for the salvation of the world, that they were for us a treasure and that too little were used. However, the first one that collected this inheritance, this treasure, it was indeed the Virgin Mary at the foot of the cross. As Mother Mary Augusta wrote in her meditation on the twelfth station of the Way of the Cross, the Virgin Mary was like a chalice to receive here the Precious Blood of her Son so that we could benefit from it.

  Thus, we could say that the Immaculate Heart of Mary then became once again the Ark of the Covenant. No longer by carrying the humanity of Jesus within herself, as it had the privilege for nine months, but it became this time by carrying in it all the merits of Jesus in order to distribute them to us with abundance. [That is why we could say that after celebrating the Sacred Heart of Our Lord yesterday, ] we celebrate today the Immaculate Heart which has become like the intendant, the manager of the merits of this Sacred Heart. We are therefore no longer surprised by the answer of St. Dominic Savio: “What comforted me the most when I died, was the assistance of Mary, Mother of Jesus! Tell the kids! Never forget to pray to her in their lifetime. " This Motherly Heart finally has only one mission: to lead us to heaven by offering for us the merits of her Son.

  Now the way of heaven is not the one that is broad and spacious, but the one which, on the contrary, is narrow and steep. This is why, to celebrate the Immaculate Heart of Mary, to entrust oneself to this Motherly Heart is also to desire to walk on the path of holiness and not only to desire, but indeed to walk on this path. Thus, the Virgin Mary on this day once again sends us all her invitations to conversion. How to forget on this day these calls made from Lourdes, Fatima, the Sallette, Aquita and in many other places!?

  In this Mass, which for a part of the community brings us into our retreat, let us hear these calls for conversion and also desire to convert us. May Our Lady of the Snows guide us and accompany us throughout these five days and may She have the latitude to work our hearts.

  Finally, this day of the Immaculate Heart of Mary must be for each of us a day that strengthens us in the fight for the Faith. Father Jerome was convinced of the importance of the Virgin Mary in keeping the faith and he wrote: “The cult of the Blessed Virgin constitutes our advanced stronghold. Abandoning it would begin all our defeats; on the contrary, its safeguard ensures the integrity of all defense devices. “May She give us the courage to go against the current, and let’s not forget to thank her for what She has already given us.

Immaculate Heart of Mary, pray for us.
