Ponder This
“O Holy Spirit, descend plentifully into my heart. Enlighten the dark corners of this neglected dwelling and scatter there Thy cheerful beams.”
St. Augusttine

God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him might not perish but might have eternal life.
For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him will not be condemned, but whoever does not believe has already been condemned, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.

Reverence in Church and in the Presence of the Blessed Sacrament
The Second Vatican Council, in Lumen Gentium (11), teaches that the Eucharist is the “source and summit of the Christian life.”
It is the source because all grace comes from Christ, who is truly present in the Eucharist.
It is the summit because it is our highest form of worship, where we join in Christ’s sacrifice to the Father at every Mass. Because of this great gift, we are called to show reverence for the Eucharist in our thoughts, words, and actions.
Ways We Show Reverence
Whether you are a lifelong Catholic or visiting for the first time, you are welcome here. We invite you to enter this sacred space with us in a spirit of prayer, reverence, and openness to the presence of Jesus.
Silence
When we enter the church, we enter a sacred space. Quiet helps us become aware that we are in the presence of God. We should exit the same way and engage in quiet conversation in the narthex.
Modesty
Our clothing should reflect dignity and respect. We dress not for ourselves, but for the Lord who is truly present.
Genuflection
We genuflect toward the tabernacle as a sign of reverence for Christ, our King, present in the Eucharist.
Kneeling
When able, kneeling is a natural posture of adoration. It expresses both God’s greatness and our dependence on Him.
Prayer
Reverence begins in the heart. In the quiet of the church, we speak to the Lord and listen. Silence is not empty—it is where God speaks.
Sign of the Cross
Make it slowly and with intention, remembering the Holy Trinity and the saving Cross of Christ.
Silent Adoration
Spend time simply being with the Lord—looking upon Him with love and faith.
Thanksgiving
After receiving Communion, remain for a few moments to thank and adore the Lord.
Respect for the Eucharist
We show great care for the Eucharist, even the smallest particle, because Christ is fully present.
Everything we do in church should reflect one simple truth: we are in the presence of Jesus.

Teaching Positions
St. Albert the Great Catholic School is looking to hire for the following positions for the 2026-2027 school year:
Junior High Spanish Teacher (part time)
Junior High Social Studies Teacher- (part time)
Please contact Dr. Susan Kehoe, skehoe@stalbertreno.org for more information.

Our Parish is committed to providing a safe, welcoming environment where children, youth, and vulnerable adults can grow in faith and community. A strong Safe Environment program helps ensure that everyone who serves in ministry has been properly trained and screened. These efforts are not simply policies. They are an expression of our Gospel call to protect the most vulnerable among us. By working together as a community, we help foster trust, accountability, and a culture of care in our parish. If you are interest in volunteering in a ministry that serves youth or vulnerable adults, please remember that Safe Environment training and compliance is required. Thank you for helping keep our parish a safe place for all.
