Legion of Mary
The Legion of Mary is one of the largest lay organizations in the Catholic Church, founded in Dublin in 1921.

Parish Mission
A Parish Mission is planned every two years at Corpus Christi Parish. It is a preaching event conducted on consecutive evenings. The preaching, usually by guest priest, centers on the Word of God as well as the teaching of the Catholic Church. The preaching emphasizes an individual’s personal relationship with the Lord, a deeper sense of the parish community, and a greater consciousness of service within our community.
Prayer Gardens
Our Prayer Gardens, with outdoor Stations of the Cross, are located behind the convent and provide the opportunity for private prayer and meditation.
Prayer Group
Every Thursday, beginning at 8:00 PM, there is a gathering in our parish chapel before the tabernacle to give God glory and praise. We welcome anyone who longs to experience the Lord’s presence and those with a prayer need for themselves or others. The Lord waits for YOU!
