St. Philip Parish in Posey County celebrates Eucharistic Renewal

St. Philip Parish in Posey County has installed the Twelve Stations of the Holy Eucharist devotionals outside the church's south side. Deacon Charlie Koressel shared with The Message that this is one of the programs the parish submitted as part of the Eucharistic Renewal promoted by the Diocese of Evansville. The Twelve Stations of the Holy Eucharist is attributed to St. Francis. Deacon Charlie explained the Twelve Stations cover the prefigurement of the Holy Eucharist from the time of Abraham and Melchizedek to the present day Marriage Supper of the Lamb, from promise to fulfillment. Each station has a description, scripture passage and prayer. Deacon Charlie said the stations are available 24/7 for anyone wishing to pray the devotional as an individual or collectively. Devotional guides are available in a mailbox-like container at the start of the first station.
