What is a Eucharistic Procession?

A Eucharistic Procession is a public act of worship where we bring Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament through campus, stopping to pray and invite others into His presence. It’s a way to share the beauty of our faith with the community and grow in devotion to the Eucharist.

Why Participate?

  • Deepen your love for Jesus in the Eucharist
  • Be a witness of faith on campus
  • Pray with fellow students in a unique and powerful way
  • Celebrate with food & fellowship at the after-party!

All are welcome! No need to RSVP—just come and be part of this beautiful tradition.

PARKING

Limited free parking is available on a first come, first serve basis in our parking lot (on the south side of our building) and on our north and south lawn space. Student parking attendants will be available on site to help with parking. Should our parking lot and lawn reach capacity, paid parking is available on Taylor St and in UIC’s parking lot on S Morgan St in between Roosevelt and Taylor St., which is just a short walk from the Newman Center (*see map below). We are also just a short walk away from the UIC/Halsted blue line stop. We highly recommend public transit and/or carpooling to our event, but we will do our best to help you find parking.
