Report: Eucharistic Procession, 15 July 2018

On Sunday, 15 July 2018, the Knights of Columbus Woodlawn Council 2161 Traditional Latin Mass Guild organized a Eucharistic Procession after the 12 noon, 3rd Sunday of the Month Latin Mass at St. Titus Church in Aliquippa, Pennsylvania.

Fr. Ladis J. Cizik offers Mass for the Eighth Sunday after Pentecost.

The intentions for the procession were threefold:
  • In Reparation for sins committed against the Sacred Heart of Jesus & the Immaculate Heart of Mary;
  • To invoke God's blessing & protection for the people of Aliquippa and Beaver County; and
  • That our government officials may discharge their duties in Justice & Truth.


The ceremonies began with an Act of Reparation to the Sacred Heart of Jesus before the Blessed Sacrament exposed.  Fr. Ladis J. Cizik was joined by Fr. Mykhaylo Shkyndya, Pastor of St. George Byzantine Catholic Church, Aliquippa, and Fr. Joachim Morgan, OSB, Parochial Vicar, St. Titus Parish.

Fr. Cizik carried the Blessed Sacrament in procession down Franklin Avenue to City Hall while St. Titus organist, Richard Shyan, played hymns on the church carillon.


An altar was erected in the City Hall parking lot for the recitation of the Litany of the Sacred Heart and Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament.
