Jacqueline Burkepile<\/a>, June 5, 2026 \u2014 2 minutes read \u2013 ChurchPOP<\/a> Did you know you can obtain a plenary indulgence<\/a> on the Solemnity of Corpus Christi?<\/p>\n Sunday, June 7, 2026, the Catholic Church will celebrate the Solemnity of Corpus Christi.<\/p>\n Saint Francis de Sales said,<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n \u201cNowhere do we find our Saviour more tender or more loving, than here [in Adoration] where He, so to speak, annihilates Himself and reduces Himself to Food, in order to penetrate our souls and to unite Himself to the hearts of His friends.\u201d<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Eucharistic processions occur worldwide on the Solemnity of Corpus Christi, or the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ.<\/p>\n During Pope Leo XIV\u2019s Wednesday General Audience on June 3, he encouraged Catholics to continue Eucharistic processions on Corpus Christi:<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n \u201cIn the Eucharist, we contemplate Jesus, the bread broken and given for each of us,\u201d he said. \u201cProcessions with the Blessed Sacrament, which take place in the streets of many towns, are an expression of popular Eucharistic devotion; in this regard, I encourage you to keep alive this beautiful public manifestation of faith.\u201d<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n How to Obtain a Plenary Indulgence on the Solemnity of Corpus Christi<\/p>\n The USCCB\u2019s Manual for Plenary Indulgences states<\/a>,<\/p>\n \u201cA plenary indulgence is granted to the faithful who devoutly participate in a solemn Eucharistic procession, held inside or outside a church, of greatest importance on the Solemnity of the Body and Blood of Christ.\u201d<\/p>\n To obtain this plenary indulgence, the faithful who participate in a Eucharistic procession on the Solemnity of Corpus Christi must also fulfill the usual three conditions.<\/p>\n In addition to participating in the Eucharistic procession, the three usual conditions for obtaining a plenary indulgence are the following:<\/p>\n Go to Confession (as soon as possible or after fulfilling the other conditions) \u00a0<\/p>\n One must approach the indulgence with a spirit \u201ccompletely detached from the affection for a sin,\u201d both mortal and venial. If a soul is not completely detached, the indulgence is partial.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
\nReceive Holy Communion (as soon as possible)
\nPray for the Pope\u2019s intentions. (The Church suggests an \u201cOur Father\u201d and a \u201cHail Mary\u201d as soon as possible)<\/p>\n
