Over 50,000 Catholics gathered in Indianapolis for the 10th National Eucharistic Congress, with the highlight being a massive Eucharistic procession through downtown. Led by bishops and cardinals, the procession included seminarians, religious sisters, priests, and first communicants spreading rose petals before the Eucharist. The procession ended at the Indiana World War Memorial Plaza, where attendees knelt in adoration and prayer. Bishop Cozzens urged participants to be missionaries and bring more people to Jesus. The procession was praised as one of the largest in the country since before World War II, with attendees expressing gratitude for the opportunity to walk with Jesus and show their faith to the wider community. Among the participants were immigrants, pilgrims, and seminarians, all moved by the experience of walking with the Lord. Following the procession, a final revival session featuring Bishop Robert E. Barron and musician Matt Maher took place at Lucas Oil Stadium. Participants expressed awe at the size and meaning of the procession, with many sharing emotional testimonies of their faith journeys. The event was seen as a powerful witness to the city of Indianapolis and the country as a whole, showcasing the unity and faith of Catholics from all walks of life.
