The Feast of Christ the King, one of the most important days in the calendar of the Catholic Church, was celebrated in Nelson with a procession of the Blessed Sacrament and Benediction in the grounds of Sacred Heart College and St Joseph's Convent. Over 850 people walked in the procession, including parishioners of Richmond.
