The Eucharist was stolen Friday from the tabernacle at Corpus Christi Cathedral on the 500 block of North Upper Broadway, police said.
Corpus Christi Police Lt. Raymond Lara said the Eucharist, the consecrated bread used in Catholic Mass, was taken after someone entered the church through an open door. The exact time of the theft has not been determined and there have been no arrests made in the case, Lara said.
Corpus Christi Cathedral officials would not comment when reached Monday.
Catholic ping!
Corpus Christi from Corpus Christi. Lord, please show these people the light, they may be seeds tossed onto stone, nudge them over to the fertile soil.
I thought the tabernacle was supposed to be locked???
And 3 that have been reported in the news.
It was my understanding that there is always a few self appointed parishioners that watch for these thieves.

Yes, I am sorry. It totally slipped my mind. Won’t happen again. I was thinking of it as a news piece.
By learning Latin, you understand English better.
Thanks for the Latin but I truly think that they know exactly what they are doing.
