Book Recommendation: God Within Us
A wonderful work which will change the way you view your Christian identity, opening your eyes to the kingdom of God within you.
Available to download here.
The most popular of all Father Raoul Plus' numerous books, and translated into a dozen languages, God Within Us explains in layman's language the ineffable mystery of God's presence within us through sanctifying grace and the indwelling of the Holy Trinity. It would be difficult to imagine anything in the supernatural life more concrete, and more striking, than the mystery of “God within Us.” It is this mystery which has been put forth with such lucidity, and in so convincing a manner, in this book. (Imprimatur 1924).
July Schedule of Events
Our Pro-Life (9am) and Spanish Catechesis (6pm-645pm) continue on Mondays through July as well as our Legion of Mary meeting on Tuesdays (330pm-430pm).
All other group activities (Choir, Acolytes, Maidens, Adult Catechesis, Men's, Women's and Young Adult's groups) will be on vacation this month of July.
Join Mary's Legion
Help convert the world to the Catholic Faith, starting with your local area by joining our Legion of Mary group, which organizes evangelizing outreaches throughout southwest Florida. To learn more, come visit our group any Tuesday at 3:30pm-4:30pm in the Confession Room at St. Agnes or contact us at [email protected]. Auxilary members who may not be able to make the meetings are also needed.
Thanks from Seminarian Leonard FSSP
Dear Corpus Christi Faithful, Supporters, Friends and Students, Thank you so much for the warm welcome, kindness and generosity you have shown me during my short apostolate at Corpus Christi. Thank you especially for your prayers. I've learned and grown more than should be normally possible in those two weeeks, and feel inspired to pray harder, study harder and give whatever God has given me more generously back to Him. I will be praying for all of you. May Corpus Christi Mission find a great new home, and may you all become saints! Yours in the Immaculate Heart of Mary Mr. Jared Leonard FSSP

Please consider helping out. With more volunteers a convenient rotation can be established for all.
Please email [email protected] if able and willing.
God reward you for your service to Him and His Mystical Body, the Church.
