CHARLOTTE — The 15th annual Eucharistic Congress continued Saturday, Sept. 7, with a Eucharistic procession through Charlotte, starting at St. Peter Church and ending inside the Charlotte Convention Center.
Thousands of faithful joined in the procession, led by first communicants from across the Diocese of Charlotte and Bishop Peter Jugis carrying the Blessed Sacrament. Priests, deacons, religious orders, sodalities and lay groups also featured in the hour-and-a-half long procession that wound through the streets of uptown Charlotte.
The procession was so large this year that it took 45 minutes just for all of the people to enter the convention center. An estimated 10,000 to 15,000 people were expected to attend the annual event.
