Corpus Christi

The solemnity (the highest rank for a liturgical feast) of Corpus Christi is usually celebrated after Trinity Sunday in June. The words Corpus Christi are Latin and translate as The Body of Christ. Corpus Christi is a time to remember what Christ’s body and blood – also called the Eucharist or Holy Communion -means for Catholics, how it feeds our life and unites Catholics all over the world as one body in Christ.
