Several hundred people from eight parishes on the west side of Brooklyn poured onto Court Street June 11 to proclaim the real presence of Christ in the Eucharist.
The gathering, like many others throughout the diocese, was an observance of the feast of the Body and Blood of Christ (formerly called Corpus Christi), when Catholics worldwide celebrate the gift of the Eucharist.
Sunday’s procession stepped off from Carroll Park on Court Street and terminated four blocks later at St. Mary Star of the Sea Parish.
