The Parish of Saint Catherine of Siena, Trumbull CT, joyfully announces a very special celebration of The Solemnity of Corpus Christi on Sunday, June 18, 2017. 

“We live in such a visual culture,” Father Marcello said. “So a procession, with its candles, incense, and servers—with Our Lord in the monstrance, and so many of our parishioners and friends of all ages taking part —this helps to bring home to all of us that the Eucharist is the source and summit of our Catholic faith.” 

Please join us for the 12:00 noon Mass on Sunday, June 18, also referred to as The Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ, after which Father Marcello will lead a Corpus Christi Procession out of the Church, on the church’s beautiful parish grounds. The Procession will conclude in the Church with Benediction of the Most Blessed Sacrament.

Our Parish Choir, under the direction of Dr. William H. Atwood, will sing for this Mass — one of the most beautiful Masses of the year — in which we will especially honor our Lord, who is truly present in the Holy Eucharist!

Father Joseph A. Marcello, Pastor, believes that it is central to our belief and to our work “To publicly manifest our belief in the real presence of Christ in the Eucharist.”

All are welcome to participate. Weekend Mass are scheduled for: Saturday at 4:00 p.m. and 7:15 p.m. or Sunday at 7:30 a.m., 9:00 a.m., 10:30 a.m. and 12 noon.

 The Parish of Saint Catherine of Siena warmly welcomes anyone who is new to our area, anyone who is searching for the truth, or anyone who is looking for a spiritual home. We are joyfully and faithfully Roman Catholic in belief and practice – a community of faith, worship, service, and formation – and with open hearts we invite all our brothers and sisters into a living and saving friendship with the Lord Jesus Christ, in the communion of His One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church. We are conveniently located at 220 Shelton Road in the Nichols area of Trumbull.
