The Corpus Christi procession

The parishioners of the Immaculate Conception Co-cathedral has come as usually in big numbers for the Corpus Christi celebration and procession last Sunday, May 25. The Corpus Christi celebration always coinsides with the beginning of the hurricane season. Since 2004 the procession is devoted to special prayer and blessing for the safe passage through the hurrican season. Since we started the procession and prayer and the blessing with the monstrance of the four corners of St. Kitts from the centre of the Independence Square in St. Kitts we did not suffer any major hurricanes we hope that also this year Christ present to us always in the Holy Eucharist will protect us from any dangers this season.
