Eucharistic Procession on Feast of the Body and Blood of Christ

June 6, 2010 - Eucharistic procession

To mark the Feast of the Body and Blood of Christ, Holy Cross Parish held a Eucharistic Procession after the 9:30 Mass on Sunday, June 6, 2010.

In his homily, Fr. Lukose reflected on the meaning of the Eucharist and reminded the congregation that in receiving the Eucharist, believers are in communion with God and with each other.

For the first time in several years, rainy weather forced the procession indoors. The procession was led by the cross-bearer and flag-bearers. The Sir Vincent Taillon Assembly of the Knights of Columbus provided an honour guard and the choirs of the 9:30 and 11:15 Masses provided music. The procession was followed by a Benediction service.
