Eucharistic Congress and 17th Sunday

17th Sunday inOrdinary Time

Adoration at the National Eucharistic Congress (Pictures from Seton Parish)

During the opening ceremony, the four pilgrimage routes processed in with a picture of the Saint their route was named after, you can see the pictures placed around the altar. Each route was met with great cheers from the crowd. Then Bishop Andrew Cozzens processed in with Jesus present in the large monstrance that was blessed last year by Pope Francis for the Congress. Then the entire stadium spent the next hour in adoration of our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament.

There were many spotlights on the altar while Jesus was exposed during adoration, but the larger brighter beams of light came from the sun. It was a powerful sight to behold as God’s own creation provided the brightest spotlight!

God was showing the marvel of His creation to 60,000 people!
