In the revisions of the Mass following the Council, the
Confiteor became one of three options for the penitential act near
the beginning of Mass. The Confiteor was removed from the
communion rite, where it interrupted the natural flow of events.
It remained at the beginning, but as one option rather than an
obligatory prayer. It was offered to the entire assembly to recite
rather than to the priest alone. This enabled everyone to partici-
pate in the Mass from the very start as the priestly people. One
way people participate consciously is to acknowledge to one an-
other and to God that they have sinned, to say aloud, “I confess.” Paul Turner Copyright © 2012 Resource Publications, Inc., 160 E. Virginia St. #170, San Jose, CA 95112,

Harvest breakfast! Sunday October 8th at Corpus Christi Parish, 8 am
until 1 pm. All are welcome; Freewill offering. Sponsored by the
Corpus Christi City Wide Adoration Society.
Jesus said to his disciples, “Can you not watch one hour
with me? The difference between spending time with
Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament exposed in a monstrance
rather than the tabernacle is the same as the difference
between conversing with a friend face to face instead of
having a closed door between you. Corpus Christi’s
City-Wide Adoration Society invites your participation
in Eucharistic Adoration. All families are asked to com-
mit and become involved. Please contact Marilyn Bradshaw, 858-5856,
or Sandy Wedel, 727-3773, for more information.

Three donors chipped in to purchase a gas card so our homeless
family could go and visit Grandma (age 90) this past weekend.
This lovely family lost their husband/dad 3 weeks ago and
needed to eat cookies that Grandma bakes. Family Promise as
a volunteer program blends the lives of both the homeless fami-
lies we serve and the incredible volunteers of the parish.
THANK YOU!

“What profit would there be for one to gain the whole world
and forfeit his life?” - MATTHEW 16:26
St. Francis of Assisi once said, “Remember, you are what you
are in the eyes of God, and nothing else.” We often forget this
stewardship wisdom when we spend all of our time, talent and
treasure to gain more of the world’s riches. We need to set our
priorities based on God’s values and not the values of the mate-
rial world.
Musicians Rehearsals are suspended for the sum-
mer. You are still invited to join the music ministry, 30
minutes before Mass to go thru music. All voices and
most instruments are welcome to help lead the music.
Liturgical Bits and Bytes ~ The Confiteor: Near the begin-
ning of Mass, the community acknowledges its sinfulness
and dependence on God’s mercy. One option is for all to
recite the Confiteor, the prayer that begins, “I confess to al-
mighty God.” As people admit their sin, they strike their
breast.
The Confiteor is an old prayer, but its current place-
ment in the Mass is an innovation. Prior to the Second Vati-
can Council, the priest recited the Confiteor by himself, one
of several prayers at the foot of the altar that introduced the
Mass, and the servers repeated it after him. The people
prayed the Confiteor later, just before receiving communion.
This was because for many years, people did not receive
communion at Mass frequently. When they received com-
munion outside of Mass—for example, when they were
sick—they said the Confiteor first. As communion at Mass
became more common, the Confiteor came with it. So essen-
tially, a communion service had been inserted into the
priest’s Mass, as if the people’s communion had nothing to
do with the priest’s communion or the sacrifice preceding it.
The priest even distributed communion from the tabernacle
rather than the newly consecrated bread and wine on the al-
tar.
