Two down, one to go, on getting back the proper Holy Days of Obligation, as kept by the rest of the world, including the Pope. Check his Twitter feed today if you do not believe me. He knows what day it is. Astonishingly, the Sacred Heart, the date of which is based on that of Corpus Christi, is still being kept on the right day, i.e., next Friday. Do they just not know, or something?

Having it on Sunday hasn't led to an outpouring of devotion that would be hard to stage midweek.
ReplyDeleteNo, indeed. And those events are held very successfully on the Thursday throughout the world. That said, this Diocese's Corpus Christi Procession is at Ushaw at three o'clock on Sunday afternoon, and it is always good.
