It was 140 DEGREES!
One thing is for sure, it’s hot in South Texas. Rick’s job was to capture thousands of people walking in Brownsville, Texas heat with ... well ... Jesus. The heat was brutal, but overwhelming joy for Christ let Rick to only think about one thing: go.
This is Rick Trevino. He is a Project Manager and Content Developer for the Diocese of Brownsville in Texas. Baking in the Texas heat, Rick films the movements of a Eucharistic procession through the streets of historic downtown Brownsville. He describes how he felt in the Texas heat, and also what he saw: the beauty of celebration and worship of Jesus in the Eucharist.
Rick shares how, while thousands processed throughout the city, it was what happens after the procession that is important. How do the people walking go out and share the Good News with those around them – family, friends, neighbors. He challenges people in their pursuit of witnessing to Christ’s love and to be forthright in their invitation to welcome other to Mass.
Listen to him describe his experience of a Eucharistic Procession and how he now sees that we have no excuses. Just go out and spread the Good News.
