Boże Ciało

 

Boże Ciało means God's Body in Polish and refers to Corpus Christi which means Body of Christ. This is a Catholic holiday in Poland and around the world where the eucharist (communion wafer), which in the Catholic Church is believed to be the actually body of Christ, is paraded through the streets of the towns and villages and celebrated by the people in solomn ceremonies.
