A Message from the Pastorļ»æ
Welcome to the website of Corpus Christi - St. Bernard Parish (a Roman Catholic faith community) in the 'Garden City' of Newton. Our parish, living and thriving here on the western edge of our city, provides much to our parishioners and those outside of that description - all by the grace and life of God our Father and in the name of His Son, our Lord Jesus Christ.
Our beautiful and reverent celebrations of the Mass on Sunday are made more so by the faithful and active participation of all present. The Mass's daily and Sunday celebrations provide an oasis of grace and faith for many parishioners and those who visit. Eucharistic Adoration offers a moment of silence with the Lord and enables us to hear the voice of our Shepherd. Through the Eucharist, we can accomplish the other works of service and mercy that so define our Catholic tradition.
Each day, through the grace of Christ, we try to build this holy place of Corpus Christi-St. Bernard into a monument of what it means to be prayerfully and generously worthy of the promises of Christ-all in the middle of a public square, often alive with voices calling folks elsewhere. As you navigate these pages, please know that our parish community welcomes and prays for you.
Blessings,
Fr. Dan O'Connell

Just a Thought from Fr. Dan
Fourth Sunday Of Easter
The readings this 4th week of Easter weave a comforting story of God's constant protection. Peter's speaking of a recent healing act demonstrates the ongoing power of Jesus, who continues to watch over his followers through those who believe in Him. Jesus’ presence assures us of God's unfailing love, reminding us that we are part of his cherished flock. It is a flock watched over by Jesus himself as the Good Shepherd, ever vigilant and protective of those who trust in him. When we live in the confidence of His abiding presence in our lives, His acts of kindness continue in our words and deeds!

Novena of St. Bernard
St. Bernard of Clairvaux is the patron saint of the Cistercians. You can ask for his prayers if you are a Cistercian or are discerning a vocation to the Cistercians. You can also ask for his prayers on behalf of a Cistercian you know.
St. Bernard is also the patron saint of beekeepers and candle makers. You can seek his intercession if you are a beekeeper or a candle maker, or for a beekeeper or candle maker you know.
ļ»æIn addition, St. Bernard is the patron saint of Gibraltar and the city of Algeciras, so you can definitely seek his prayers if you live in Gibraltar or Algeciras.
You can pray the St. Bernard of Clairvaux Novena for any intention!
