Corpus Christi 2005

The procession makes its way around the parish grounds. Probably 600 people or so participated in the 2 pm Corpus Christi procession this year.



The people kneel down on the asphalt to pray before the Blessed Sacrament at the first way altar.



The procession turns onto Mary's Way. The kids in white following the Sacrament are the children who made their First Communion last week.



Heading up Mary's Way, with Jefferson Davis Highway in the background, the faithful give public testimony to their faith in the Sacrament of Christ's Body and Blood.



The people kneel to pray at the second way altar as the Sacrament is incensed and prayers are offered.
