The Solemnity of the Body and Blood of Christ


This weekend we celebrate the transferred Solemnity of Corpus Christi. We celebrate the gift of the Eucharist. Blessed John Paul II opens his enyclical on the Eucharist with the words: "The Church draws her life from the Eucharist." In times past processions with the Blessed Sacraments passed through the streets of towns across the world. How many of our parishes have continued this tradition?
