Next Saturday, June 10, after the 5:00 Mass, we will have a Corpus Christi procession. Jesus is the Way. He leads us, out of Mass as we process into the neighborhood, in a splendid pageant of devotion. Feel free to bring flower petals to scatter to adorn the route. First Communicants are invited to process in your dresses and suits. 

The procession will conclude at the pavilion at Father Boerboom Veteran’s Park in Osseo with Benediction. If you can’t walk along, you are invited to drive and meet us there. Bring lawn chairs and a picnic basket. Some of us will patronize the local businesses and carry-out or dine-in burgers, pizza, gyros, Thai food, and/or ice cream. If the weather is not favorable, we will make the procession in the church.

Pope Benedict XVI once preached, “With the gift of himself in the Eucharist the Lord Jesus sets us free from our ‘paralyses’, he helps us up and enables us to ‘proceed’, that is, he makes us take a step ahead and then another step, and thus sets us going with the power of the Bread of Life.”

I include a photo from our first-annual procession last year. I’m asking God’s blessings as we make this joyful public witness of our faith.
