Corpus Christi Eucharistic Procession

The OLMC Knights Council participated, along with the other OLMC Ministries, in the Eucharistic Procession for the Feast of Corpus Christi this last Sunday.  The Feast of Corpus Christi (Latin for “Body of Christ”) is the Roman Rite liturgical solemnity celebrating the reality of the body and blood of Jesus Christ, the Son of God, in the Eucharist—known as transubstantiation.

Our Council along with Sodality and Rosary Makers decorated, manned, and provided readings at the first altar at the Shrine of Our Lady of Mount Carmel (4 total were set up).  The Knights 4th Degree Assembly participated in constructing the canopy for Fr. John and the Monstrance containing Jesus, to travel under, and carry it throughout the procession.
