FSM History

The Corpus Christi procession draws 800 to 1,000 Catholics.

What happened

Because the stone church in Kolonia was not yet finished, Mass was held outdoors for the crowd, and four of the island’s highest chiefs carried the canopy over the Blessed Sacrament. The procession came a few months before the Sokehs Rebellion.
