    • Hope as many as possible can take part in a Corpus Christi Procession!  In the vintage video it doesn't appear that the people were bothered one bit by the downpour of rain!

    • Thank you for this.  Many years ago when I was in a Franciscan Novus Ordo parish, we use to always have an outdoor procession with the altars and a canopy.  Children would wait for the procession to pass and shout, “Here comes the King”!  Alas, immediately after the diocesan priests took over, it was dropped.

    • I have a book, 1898, stating that the feast of Corpus Christi is no longer a day of obligation in the USA. Question: does anyone know when it was no longer?

    • Thank you for posting this! It is truly amazing. We need to preserve this footage of our heritage from the past before it is all lost to time.
