It emphasizes the joy of the institution of the Eucharist, which was observed on Holy Thursday in the somber atmosphere of the nearness of Good Friday. The feast is liturgically celebrated on the Thursday after Trinity Sunday or, "where the Solemnity of ''The Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ'' is not a holy day of obligation, it is assigned to the Sunday after the Most Holy Trinity as its proper day".〔Sanctissimi Corpus et Sanguis Christi. Roman Missal, 2011 Latin to English translation〕 At the end of Holy Mass, there is often a procession of the Blessed Sacrament, generally displayed in a monstrance. The procession is followed by Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament. A notable Eucharistic procession is that presided over by the Pope each year in Rome, where it begins at the Archbasilica of St. John Lateran and makes its way to the Basilica of Saint Mary Major, where it concludes with Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament. The celebration of the feast was suppressed in protestant churches at the Reformation. ==History== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Corpus Christi (feast)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
