Black Madonna coming to Corpus Christi

St. Joseph Church and Our Lady of Corpus Christi will host the traveling icon of the “Black Madonna” of Czestochowa on Feb. 25 as the image makes it way around the world. The image is on a worldwide journey to encourage prayer for Our Lady’s help in the defense of the most vulnerable and to ask her intercession for the protection of the family and the sanctity of all human life.

The Black Madonna will be at St. Joseph Church (710 S. 19th Street) in Corpus Christi on Feb. 25. A procession is planned to the abortion clinic on Morgan Avenue after celebrating Mass. That evening it will be taken to Our Lady of Corpus Christi where it will stay overnight and depart for Panna Maria then to San Antonio the next day.
