After Good Friday Service there is a procession. In
silence we walk Our Lady home from Calvary in total silence.
The only sound one hears is the lonely beat of a drum. After
the procession everyone pays their respects to The Sorrowful
Mother with a kiss.

“Corpus Christi” is a Latin phrase which in English means “the Body of Christ.”
At four outdoor Altars the Most Blessed Sacrament contained in the beautiful Monstrance was adored and worshiped – before beginning the hymns in honor of the Body of Christ, everyone was blessed as the Priest raised the Monstrance and traced the “Sign of the Cross.” This is properly referred to as “Benediction” or “receiving a solemn blessing by the upraised Monstrance containing the Sacred Host.”
The “Corpus Christi” Procession honored graduates who have finished years and years of schooling and have been awarded a diploma in recognition of their efforts. This is a true accomplishment which was celebrated by our parish.
The young Catholic women who wished to give thanks to God for the first 15 years of life, for their Catholic Faith, for the gift of their family, participated in a special way in the “Corpus Christi” procession. At the conclusion of the procession these young ladies renewed their Baptismal vows and received a special blessing.
Memories such as these are great to recall later in life!
