The University of Notre Dame will hold its fourth annual Eucharistic Procession across campus on Sunday, April 20. According to Fr. Kevin Russeau, the event is responsible for an upswing in vocations.
The procession, a revival of an old university tradition, will led by Father David T. Dyson, Provincial Superior of the Indiana Province of the Congregation of the Holy Cross.
"At a time when the culture wars are hitting our Catholic college campuses hard, it is heartening to know that Our Lord will be so honored and adored by so many people in Notre Dame, Indiana," said Robert Kloska, the director of Campus Ministry at Holy Cross College, in a press release.
The procession will begin after an 11:45 a.m. Mass at the Basilica of the Sacred Heart at Notre Dame and end with a picnic sponsored by the campus Knights of Columbus.
