Corpus Christi Sunday - June 11

The Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ is also known as the Solemnity of Corpus Christi, which translates from Latin to "Body of Christ."

This feast originated in France in the midthirteenth century and was extended to the whole Church by Pope Urban IV in 1264. This feast is celebrated on the Thursday following the Trinity Sunday or, as in the USA, on the Sunday following that feast.

This feast calls us to focus on two manifestations of the Body of Christ, the Holy Eucharist and the Church.
The primary purpose of this feast is to focus our attention on the Eucharist. 

The Feast of Corpus Christi is commonly used as an opportunity for public Eucharistic processions, which serves as a sign of common faith and adoration.

Our worship of Jesus in His Body and Blood calls us to offer to God our Father a pledge of undivided love and an offering of ourselves to the service of others.

Following the 12:30 PM Mass there will be a  Eucharistic Procession around Sunrise Rotary Park  followed by three hours of adoration which will end with
Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament at
4:30 PM.

Sign up to spend some time in adoration. Bring the entire family. Spend as much or as little time as you can.

Be present to Christ so that He can be present to you.

There is no limit to the number of adorers who can be present at one time! 
Please sign up for multiple slots and feel free to come even if you haven't signed up.

Adoration is simply a way to show our love for Jesus, to Adore Him in the Eucharist – and allow Him to love us.

Remember that you don’t actually have to do anything. The Catholic faith recognizes that the greatest gift God gives us is himself, and Adoration is another way for us to recognize that gift.  
Allow yourself to sit in silence and to just be with Jesus.
