Walk with Christ is Sydney’s annual Eucharistic Procession held on the Solemnity of Corpus Christi, honouring the Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity of Christ. It serves as a public witness and act of worship, described in the Directory of Popular Piety and the Liturgy as
“a continuation of the Eucharistic celebration, allowing the faithful to publicly profess their faith in the Most Blessed Sacrament”.

What to bring
“We walk with the Risen One in His journey to meet the entire world.”
– Pope Benedict XVI, Homily on the Solemnity of Corpus Christi, 2005.
WALK WITH CHRIST 2025
On this Solemnity, we invite all Catholics to unite and honour the real presence by participating in the Walk with Christ Eucharistic Procession through the street of Sydney’s CBD.
In 1264, St. Thomas Aquinas proposed the Feast of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ (now known as Corpus Christi) to Pope Urban IV, who subsequently established it as a solemnity for the entire Church. The Pope also commissioned Aquinas to compose hymns for the feast, resulting in well-known works such as Pange Lingua, Tantum Ergo, and O Salutaris Hostia.
