Eucharistic Procession on Skid Row

Thank you for joining us for a Eucharistic Procession, where we brought Jesus into the streets, prayed for our brothers and sisters experiencing homelessness, addiction, and despair. This is more than a walk—it is a mission of love, mercy, and hope. The faithful bring Christ in the Eucharist, or Blessed Sacrament, which was carried by the priests into Skid Row, from St. Francis Xavier Catholic Church (222 S. Hewitt Street, Los Angeles, CA 90012) all the way into Skid Row. As a group we stopped at various locations to pray.

This year more than 750 people joined us!

What this year’s Skid Row Eucharistic procession accomplished

That Saturday evening, as we walked behind the Blessed Sacrament led by Archbishop José H. Gomez, what was missing in that recovery prayer — and what is sorely missing on the streets of Los Angeles’ Skid Row — was everywhere to be found.
