Just to show that no one communion has a monopoly on the POD world, here is the Episcopal Bishop of Pittsburgh blessing his city with the Blessed Sacrament.

This was the idea of my liturgics professor, Dr. Arnold Klukas while he was the Rector of Grace Church Mount Washington. Quite a spectacle, with canopies and everything.

Now I know that typically I don't stand for this sort of thing - the extra-eucharistic use of the Sacrament. But, in the original context, the Feast of Corpus Christi involved a procession of the reserved sacrament, done once per year. Benediction is really a short way of doing this. Besides, I have a secret "obsession for procession", especially when copes and thuribles are involved.
