Praying for a Strong Version of H. 5399
October 17  |  7:00 PM

Corpus Christi is hosting a Rosary prayer service inside the church on Monday, October 17, at 7:00 p.m. The Diocese is encouraging all parishes to designate this special hour to pray the Holy Rosary for the intention of “passing a strong pro-life version of H. 5399 to be considered October 18 by the S.C. Senate.” All parishioners and community members are invited to join us along with hundreds of other prayer services taking place all across the State of South Carolina as we fervently pray for this paramount intention.

Though we at Corpus Christi know what an exciting and special time this is for every couple, we also know that it can also be a bit overwhelming at times too. The goal of the new manual Planning Your Wedding is to help make the process of planning the wedding a smooth and enjoyable one. We hope that everyone find this guide both informative and helpful.
