Today our parish gathered in joyful witness to celebrate the Solemnity of Corpus Christi with a procession of the Blessed Sacrament.

As we walked together in prayer, we gave public witness to our faith in the Real Presence of Jesus Christ in the Holy Eucharist. Thank you to everyone who participated and helped make this beautiful celebration possible.

May our love for Christ in the Eucharist continue to deepen, and may the Lord bless our parish community as we seek to bring His presence into our homes, workplaces, and daily lives.

“Jesus said, ‘I am the living bread that came down from heaven.’” (John 6:51)

Come Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of your faithful and kindle in them the fire of your love. Send forth your Spirit and they shall be created and you shall renew the face of the earth.

At this time, we pray for all those receiving the sacrament of Confirmation, that they may be inspired to use the gifts of the Holy Spirit in the service of their communities.

Thank you to everyone who came, watched and prayed. May the blessings of these holy hours remain with us all. ✨
