Join us! Make known God’s presence in our world and in our lives!

Let us come together as a parish family on Sunday, June 22nd, and walk with Jesus at the annual Corpus Christi Procession. All are welcome. The procession will take place immediately following the 12pm Mass.

It will then make its way through the Church grounds.

A special invitation to the children who have received their First Holy Communion this year and all children to wear their Sunday best clothes and scatter flower petals to honor Jesus! Please connect with Shirley Staples at shirleystaples@yahoo.com; they are looking forward to having baskets of petals prepared for the children.

The Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ, also known as Corpus Christi, witnesses the Church Universal giving homage and thanks to Jesus Christ, who instituted the Holy Eucharist, the Church’s greatest treasure.

The Solemnity of Corpus Christi is celebrated either on the Thursday after Trinity Sunday or the following Sunday. The feast was instituted by Pope Urban IV in 1246.

Ave verum Corpus!
