This year at our National Assembly, we hosted an evening of Eucharistic Adoration and a procession at the Cathedral Basilica of St. Louis.

Reflecting on this beautiful time with the Eucharist, Sister Catherine Anne Burleigh, O.P., Vice Chairperson of CMSWR and Vicar of the Dominican Sisters of St. Dominican Sisters of Saint Cecilia, said the “procession behind Our Lord in the monstrance reminded us that our whole life, especially as consecrated religious, is a pilgrimage back to the Father, following in the footsteps of our savior and the bridegroom of our souls, Jesus Christ.”

May we all reflect more deeply on our earthly pilgrimage and how we can deepen our devotion to Jesus in the Eucharist.
