Corpus Christi

In this lesson we study the Feast of Corpus Christi and provide various practical ways to observe this feastday. Corpus Christi has long been a Holy Day of Obligation in the Universal Church and was observed as such in the United States up until 1885. This important holy day, nine weeks after Holy Thursday, is specifically intended as a way for us to honor the Most Blessed Sacrament.
