Following Sunday’s Traditional Latin Mass on the External Solemnity of Corpus Christi at Our Lady of Peace Church in Gowanus, Brooklyn, nearly fifty faithful took part in the annual Corpus Christi procession. Making its way around the church and pausing at the station altars, the faithful knelt in adoration as the priest, bearing the Eucharist in the monstrance, imparted Benediction.
Flower girls scattered rose petals along the route, preparing the way for the Blessed Sacrament. Acolytes carried the Crucifix and candles while swinging censers of incense, and the traditional ombrellino shaded the Sacred Host. Throughout, the choir chanted hymns, lifting hearts and minds to Heaven during this beautiful and enduring Catholic tradition.
