Like a Light Behind a Glass

Poster congratulating the new diocesan priests hangs in the narthex of St. Michael's Cathedral.

The Year of the Priest ends today (June 19^th). 

The priest speaks two words, and Our Lord comes down from Heaven at his voice, and shuts Himself up in a little Host. God looks upon the altar. “That is My well-beloved Son, ” He says, “in whom I am well-pleased. ” He can refuse nothing to the merits of the offering of this Victim. If we had faith, we should see God hidden in the priest like a light behind a glass, like wine mingled with water.
