As you can see throughout these photos, there is no shortage of priests or religious at such events. There are at least six or seven priests and one bishop. More on that tomorrow.
If you look carefully, you will see the altar boy on the far side swinging the thurible towards the Blessed Sacrament. He will bow after three swings, then turn, at which time the altar boy closest to us will turn and swing the thurible three times. They continued alternating all allong the route.
Another picture of one of the Missionaries of Charity, holding a song sheets handed out earlier.
This photograph shows Our Lord being brought through the cemetary gates as they head across the parking lot to where the fourth altar resides. I'll bring you more photos tomorrow at the fourth altar.
