Pope Francis postpones Corpus Christi celebrations
(Vatican Radio) The director of the Holy See Press Office
has made an announcement that Pope Francis has decided to postpone Corpus
Christi celebrations.
Greg Burke announced on Thursday 18th May 2017: “The Holy
Father has decided to postpone the liturgical celebration of Corpus Christi,
from Thursday 15th June to Sunday 18th June.”
Burke explained that the decision was “in favour of a better
participation of the People of God, of priests and of the faithful of the
Church in Rome.” He added, “There is a second reason: Thursday is a weekday and
so there will be less inconvenience in Rome.”
On the Feast of Corpus Christi, the faithful celebrate the
belief in the body and blood of Jesus Christ's Real
Presence in the Eucharist.
