Fr Stan...the rapper

Blog 6 12 07:
Hey!!! The Christchurch Diocese had a great youth mass on Sunday evening, and afterwards the fifteen minutes of adoration of the Blessed Sacrament provided us all with an opportunity to stop and just adore Jesus. Hopefully we can all realise the importance of adoration and the enormous benefits and graces that God can give us when we stop our lives to spend time with him.

Click here to check out this video of Fr Stan Fortuna CFR, who is a priest of the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal in America and recently did a tour through Australia to generate enthusiasm for WYD. He will be at WYD08, and I know a few people who are already looking forward to seeing him perform!! I count myself among them.

Check out his website by clicking here.

Here are the lyrics of the chorus, and click here to go to see the rest of them:

School of the Eucharist
Refrain
At this school when I sit
even just a little bit
I get hit with the power
that made the veil in the temple split
when I submit
fall on the floor and adore
can’t get enough
got to come back for sa-more
every prostitute and sinner
every fool and hypocrite
can benefit in this school
repent and commit
as the incense rises up
in adoration of the throne
somethin happens
to my wounded heart
from all the love revealed and shown
bright light Shekina
comes to my aid to assist
to change and sustain
the way I think and exist
to feel the bliss because my name
is in the book of life’s list
that’s what happens when you sit
in the school of the Eucharist

I challenge you to make time to attend the School of the Eucharist!
