Corpus Christi Procession – Procesja Bożego Ciała June 3rd on the Streets of Historic Polonia

This year’s multi-parish Corpus Christi procession between two historic Polonia churches is on Sunday, June 3, 2017.

The half-mile procession will begin at 1:00 p.m. from in front of St. Stanislaus Church, proceeds to 4 outdoor altars, and conclude with Holy Mass at Corpus Christi Church. The Mass will be concelebrated by priests from parishes around the Diocese.

All Western New York’s faithful are welcomed to join in the procession and Mass. The Solemnity of the Body and Blood of Christ is a feast established in the church in the 13th century. Polish Roman Catholics carried the tradition with them to America, where it continues to this day as a unique public display.

  1. Each year I attend. Each year I am moved to tears by the beauty of it, by the spirituality of it.
