To ask for our spiritual and material needs.
To place our successes and failures,our joys and pains before Him.
To thank Jesus for all blessings and graces received.

The procession of the Blessed Sacrament
The procession of the Blessed Sacrament is held to offer Jesus our adoration and praise and to receive His blessings. Another purpose of the procession is to invoke blessings on the town/village we are and on the people. We should help to organize this procession which has such good purposes. We can do the following:
As the Blessed Sacrament is kept in our Church we must not disrespect it or behave badly in any way. Hence
Be silent when inside the Church.
Genuflect and pay homage to the Eucharistic Lord.
Walk modestly when you are inside the Church.
