Setiap Lutut harus bertelut

Catatan: penekanan kalimat […] tambahan dari saya sendiri, bukan dari artikel asli.

Video diatas menunjukkan dua Fransiskan Kapusin yang membawa Tubuh Kristus tepat ditengah-tengah Preston, sebuah pasar di Inggris. Ketika seorang Fransiskan mengucapkan litani Kristus, Fransiskan yang lainnya memegang Kristus didalam Monstrans. Sang Biarawan yang berbicara menggunakan ampli dengan berulang-ulang mengucapkan, “Come and kneel before Him now,” [ terj. Datang dan berlututlah didepanNya sekarang] dan betapa sangat indah sekali melihat orang-orang yang sedang berbelanja, menghentikan kegiatan mereka untuk berlutut didepan Tuhan. Beberapa tertawa, dan yang lain berdiri dengan wajah yang kebingungan.

Video ini tepat sebelum Pesta Tubuh Kristus, sebuah Pesta dimanaa banyak Imam Paroki masih memimpin prosesi Ekaristi secara publik. Perlu sekali bagi kita untuk membawa Kristus kembali di jalan-jalan dan pasar dan tempat-tempat umum lainnya. [hmm..saya tidak melihat/ setidaknya pernah mendengar ada paroki di daerah tertentu pernah melakukan ini, jika pernah ada ini sangat menggembirakan, kontak kami dan akan kami tulis disini]

Inilah yang dikatakan biarawan Fransiskan tersebut di dalam video:
