Corpus Christi
Gulf Coast city
Corpus Christi is a Christian feast celebrating the presence of Christ in the Eucharist, observed on the Thursday after Trinity Sunday in Catholic and some Anglican traditions.
The Latin means "body of Christ." Corpus Christi is also a coastal city in southern Texas, named for the bay Spanish explorers discovered on the feast day: We drove down to Corpus Christi for the weekend.
