Many people in our world are hungry and thirsty. This hunger and thirst go well
beyond physical needs for food, security, and shelter. Many are emotionally and
spiritually parched, too. Behind every act of violence is a soul who hungers.
People live with relationships that actually starve them. They are abused,
exploited, disrespected, laughed at, and marginalized. There is a lot of confusion
and inner pain that needs to be acknowledged and expressed. We all long to be
understood and loved, even when our inner demons or who I am make it difficult
to be. Do you live with inner confusion and pain? Folks often wander through life without any real direction or
purpose and take their cues from what seems satisfying or popular at the moment. The deeper dots of our lives
can easily remain unconnected, and we can find ourselves without grounding, purpose, or real happiness. Life
becomes shallow and without real purpose as we hunger and thirst for an ultimate love.�
�
It’s easier to see the physical hungers and thirsts. We try to respond to these as best we can. Much more needs to
be done. With all that God’s earth can provide, nobody ought to face sleep at night with a belly that’s empty. It’s
sinful. It’s unjust. But isn’t all hunger unjust? It doesn’t need to be, and it should not be. Just as no one ought to
be physically hungry and thirsty, there is really no need to be emotionally or spiritually deficient either. If we
have more privileges at our fingertips, it is easier to try to satisfy our emotional and spiritual hungers and thirst
by acting on impulse or self�indulgence, carelessly following passions, or by seeking self�destructive ways to
dull the ache of emptiness.�
�
Folks need to know where to look for nourishment and need the right friends to help them find it. We may not
think that we have enough to respond to and to satisfy all of the needs, but we do. It doesn’t take much. Five
loaves and two fish provided for a huge crowd. With God, all things are possible. Our faith provides the
direction for where God’s children must go to find the nourishment they seek. It also tells us how to structure
life so that justice and equity can be a reality for all. It also tells us how to respond to pain, sinfulness, and
confusion. Come to the water and then help another get there.�
First Reading: Thus says the LORD: All you who are thirsty, come to the water! You who have no money,
come, receive grain and eat; Come, without paying and without cost, drink wine and milk! Why spend your
money for what is not bread; your wages for what fails to satisfy? Heed me, and you shall eat well, you shall
delight in rich fare. Come to me heedfully, listen, that you may have life. I will renew with you the everlasting
covenant, the benefits assured to David.�
�
Responsorial Psalm: The hand of the Lord feeds us; he answers all our needs.�
�
Second Reading: Brothers and sisters: What will separate us from the love of Christ? Will anguish, or distress,
or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or the sword? No, in all these things we conquer
overwhelmingly through him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor
principalities, nor present things, nor future things, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature will
be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.�
�
Gospel: When Jesus heard of the death of John the Baptist, he withdrew in a boat to a deserted place by himself.
The crowds heard of this and followed him on foot from their towns. When he disembarked and saw the vast
crowd, his heart was moved with pity for them, and he cured their sick. �When it was evening, the disciples
approached him and said, “This is a deserted place and it is already late; dismiss the crowds so that they can go to
the villages and buy food for themselves.” Jesus said to them, “There is no need for them to go away; give them
some food yourselves.” But they said to him, “Five loaves and two fish are all we have here.” Then he said,
“Bring them here to me, ” and he ordered the crowds to sit down on the grass. Taking the five loaves and the two
fish, and looking up to heaven, he said the blessing, broke the loaves, and gave them to the disciples, who in turn
gave them to the crowds. They all ate and were satisfied, and they picked up the fragments left over� twelve
wicker baskets full. Those who ate were about five thousand men, not counting women and children.�

“And behold I am with you always, until the end of the age.” Matthew 28:20�
�
Why are some of the consecrated hosts reserved after the Mass?�
�
While it would be possible to eat all of the bread that is consecrated during the Mass, some is usually kept in
the tabernacle. The Body of Christ under the appearance of bread that is kept or “reserved” after the Mass is
commonly referred to as the “Blessed Sacrament.” There are several pastoral reasons for reserving the Blessed
Sacrament. First of all, it is used for distribution to the dying (Viaticum), the sick, and those who legitimately
cannot be present for the celebration of the Eucharist. Secondly, the Body of Christ in the form of bread is to be
adored when it is exposed, as in the Rite of Eucharistic Exposition and Benediction, when it is carried in
eucharistic processions, or when it is simply placed in the tabernacle, before which people pray privately.
These devotions are based on the fact that Christ himself is present under the appearance of bread. Many holy
people well known to American Catholics, such as St. John Neumann, St. Elizabeth Ann Seton, St. Katharine
Drexel, and Blessed Damien of Molokai, practiced great personal devotion to Christ present in the Blessed
Sacrament. In the Eastern Catholic Churches, devotion to the reserved Blessed Sacrament is practiced most
directly at the Divine Liturgy of the Presanctified Gifts, offered on weekdays of Lent.�

Lord Jesus, Who promised to remain with us always, when information overwhelms us and fear
overtakes us, speak to us again those comforting words, “Peace be with you.” Though we
cannot be physically close to others, give us the ability and courage to love as well as we can,
since “perfect love casts out all fear.” Direct your caring gaze on doctors and nurses, researchers
and safety personnel; come to strengthen the sick, the vulnerable, and comfort those who are
grief stricken. And when the pandemic has passed, and this frightening crisis is resolved, teach
us to know You more certainly as our dearest Friend and our only Hope. You live and reign
with the Father and the Holy Spirit, One God, forever and ever. Amen. (offer one Our Father,
one Hail Mary, and the Glory be...) Our Lady, Mother of Perpetual Help, pray for us. �
