A Eucharistic procession is a public act of worship in which the Blessed Sacrament is carried in a monstrance, and incensed, through the streets of Vero Beach. The faithful follow, singing hymns and praying other prayers.

Additionally, this tradition symbolizes the Church’s mission to carry Christ to the world (Matt. 28:18-20). It also publicly professes the Catholic belief in the real presence of Jesus in the Eucharist.

Ven. Daniela Zanetta(15 December 1962 – 14 April 1986) was an Italian young layperson who was a member of the Focolare Movement. She suffered from a rare skin disease, diagnosed soon after birth, which caused skin tears and blistering. In childhood she suffered hand and leg paralysis and gum disease. She served as the leader of a parish youth group and collaborated with other parish initiatives such as visiting children.

She opposed euthanasia (and abortion) and in November 1984 wrote a response in a local Catholic magazine to Italian doctors advocating euthanasia, urging people to see the goodness of all life despite its occasions of suffering. It was said that she had the "precise and determined will to live" and that she "was bursting with love for others". She died at the age of 23.

Zanetta became titled as venerable on 23 March 2017 after Pope Francis signed a decree that acknowledged that Zanetta had practiced heroic virtue throughout her life. (Catholic Saints FB page and Wikipedia)
