This year, Corpus Festivity will be celebrated with solemnity & splendor

The Corpus Christi festival began in the city with the novena and the recitations of the Holy Rosary. It returns with the solemnity of the pandemic. The celebrations of the cults take place in Santa Maria la Mayor parish, which is the canonical seat of the Brotherhood of the Santisimo Sacramento de Andujar. Oscar Menendez has assembled the altar. The novena, which began last June 9, and ends this Friday, the 17th, is being presided over by Pedro Montesinos (archpriest of Santa Maria la Mayor)

Vigil

The vigil and display of the Blessed Sacrament are scheduled for Thursday, June 16 through Friday, June 17. There will also be medals imposed on new brothers. Sunday, June 19th, will be the big day. It will start at nine in morning with the Corpus Christi Mass at Santa Maria. This will precede the procession in which Christ in the Blessed Sacrament will parade through the streets of Santa Maria. After three years of not being able to celebrate it because of the coronavirus pandemic, Sunday will mark the beginning of the major day. The Eucharist will also be celebrated in San Miguel at 9 AM by the first Communion year boys and girls.

The cults will end on Sunday, June 26 at 9 p.m. in Santa Maria la Mayor with the celebration of the "octave to Corpus". Many witnesses have testified that the Corpus Christi procession has been in the city since at least the 15th century. After a decline in 17th-century, it reached its peak in 16th century. This devotion reached its peak in the 19th century with the fusion of all brotherhoods of Santa Maria's Sacred Body and the protection of Nocturnal Adoration.
