Thank you to all those who came out to the Eucharistic Procession and all those who worked to make it possible. For pictures and an account of the procession visit here .

On Sunday April 26th, 2009 the University of Notre Dame will hold its 5th annual Eucharistic Procession. All are welcome to join the Reverend Patrick Neary, Rector of Moreau Seminary, and the Notre Dame community as they celebrate and give witness to Christ's presence in the Eucharist. Co-sponsored by many different groups from Notre Dame, St. Mary's, and Holy Cross College, the procession is a revival of an old tradition at the University. Join us for the 11:45 Mass at the Basilica of the Sacred Heart on the campus of the University of Notre Dame followed immediately by the procession and a picnic lunch provided by the campus Knights of Columbus. If you intend on participating, please visit the Sign-up page to register.

Children of Mary is organizing a 40 Hour Devotion leading up to the Eucharistic Procession. Eucharistic Adoration will be held for 40 hours before the Procession in the Log Chapel near Bond Hall. People are needed to cover these slots, please visit the 40 Hour Devotion Sign-up page to sign up.

In case of rain, the Procession will be held inside the Basilica after the 11:45am mass. Next year's procession will be on Sunday April 18, 2010.

In addition to the praise and honor we offer to Jesus Christ fully present in the Blessed Sacrament, we pray for these intentions:

  • A greater respect for and protection of human life, from conception to natural death
  • An increase in vocations to the priesthood and religious life, especially in the Congregation of Holy Cross
  • For blessings upon the students, faculty, administration, and staff of Holy Cross College, Saint Mary's College, and the University of Notre Dame
