PROCESSION PERSONALITIES AND PRAYERS

Leading Catholic Radio and Television personalities, Garry Meadows, Jim Fitzmaurice and Syd Donovan, will lead prayers and Scripture readings at this year's Annual Eucharistic Procession at Aquinas College, on Sunday, October 25. They will share the microphone work with Father Chris Flamer and Father Pat Ahern. Before the Procession, a bracket of religious folk songs will be sung by a leading Perth group, "The Shades". The folk songs will be of particular interest to the younger members of the assembly. Prayers and readings will also be in contemporary style, and these should appeal to young and old alike. There will be special prayers and blessings for youth, for the sick and aged, and for apostolic groups. The Blessed Sacrament, the focal point of the whole celebration, will be carried in procession by Most Rev. P. Quinn, Auxiliary Bishop to His Grace, Archbishop Goody. The occasional Sermon will be preached by Father Robert Healy, Parish Priest of Willagee.
