Corpus Christi: "My dear young friends, if you take part frequently in the Eucharistic celebration, if you dedicate some of your time to adoration of the Blessed Sacrament, the Source of love which is the Eucharist, you will acquire that joyful determination to dedicate your lives to following the Gospel." -Pope Benedict XVI Message on the Occasion of the XXIII World Youth Day

“Behold, I am with you always, until the end of the age" Matthew 28:20. Once again, Jesus walked with his brides through the convent grounds in this year's Corpus Christi procession. The novices walked beside the Lord as they held high His golden canopy. |
Father Francis Afelt, O.F.M., our chaplain, elevates the monstrance at the first altar of adoration in front of the St Francis Provincialate. |

The Sisters sang songs of adoration as we walk towards the second altar of adoration. |
This year the second altar was placed in front of good St Joseph. |

|
Our third altar is always at Our Lady of Angels, our elderly Sisters' convent. Every year the Sisters wait there lovingly for Jesus' arrival, while they sing songs of adoration. |
Finally, Father Francis leads the procession to our fourth altar, located in the St Francis Convent main chapel, where there are flowers and candles poised to welcome him into our home and into our hearts! |

O Sacrament most holy, O Sacrament divine, all praise and all thanksgiving be every moment thine! | |
