As many may know, we, as Catholics in the United States, are in the midst of a great campaign promoting the Real Presence of Christ in the Eucharist. We call this campaign the Eucharistic Revival. On no Sunday is the Real Presence more explicitly celebrated than on Corpus Christi (literally, the Body of Christ), which will take place here at St. Thomas More and throughout the U.S. this weekend. It is a long-standing devotional custom to celebrate the Real Presence of Christ in the Eucharist through a Eucharistic procession, where we as a people will walk with Jesus out into the world in adoration and praise for this great self-gift of God for us.
It is my hope that many of you will accompany the Blessed Sacrament in procession in the public arena celebrating the Real Presence of Jesus Christ in the Eucharist.
