Most Reverend Steven J. Raica, Bishop of the Diocese of Birmingham,
has announced the kick-off of the USCCB three-year initiative entitled:
"Eucharistic Revival: My Flesh for the Life of the World".
In his
letter dated April 5, 2022, Bishop Raica encourages the faithful to
attend an evening Eucharistic Procession through downtown Birmingham on
the Feast of Corpus Christi which is Sunday, June 19th.
Bishop
Raica also reminds us of the Diocesan Eucharistic Celebration and Fall
Festival scheduled for October 22, 2022 at the Shrine of the Blessed
Sacrament in Hanceville. He comments: "I pray that many fruits will
be born as we begin to enact these efforts and that we draw closer to
Christ in the Eucharist throughout these next years."
Full
details are contained in the letter within this announcement. The office
also sent a document outlining suggestions for a personalized banner to
be created from St. Patrick's to be used in the procession.
Mark your calendars and let's plan on being a part of these important events.
