Some of you may remember that several weeks ago--before I braved the Wild West--I participated in Church of the Advent's 150 year anniversary celebration in San Francisco. The sesquicentennial (big word!) hit a high note with the feast of Corpus Christi, observed on May 22 with a lovely Mass, a procession of the Blessed Sacrament, and solemn benediction in the garden. It was a beautiful occasion and a wonderful way for me to end my first year of field education at Advent. Here is a youtube video of the procession and benediction.
It was really nice to watch this video for the first time yesterday, as it helped me remember all the wonderful folks at Advent and made me appreciate, even more, the deep faith and beautiful piety of our community. Can't find liturgy like this in Omaha!
