End of Eucharistic Congress to be marked in London this weekend

A London Eucharistic Octave has been held this week following the Eucharistic Congress which was held in Budapest last week. Cardinal Nichols opened it with a Mass to mark this in London at Maiden Lane (Covent Garden) last Saturday, to coincide with the closing Papal Mass in Budapest. The full details are on a website here: https://catholicengland.org/

The Octave ends with the Annual Corpus Christi Procession this Sunday, delayed from the Feast due to lockdown, to which we hope many thousands will attend. The Procession begins at The Assumption Church, Warwick Street at 3.30pm (Sunday 19th September), and goes, by way of stations at Farm Street and the Ukrainian Cathedral, at both of which Benediction will be given in the street, to Spanish place for Mendelssohn's Lauda Sion and Pontifical Benediction. It will end around 5.30pm
