Members of the House are often called upon, and expected to, lead popular processions through the streets of [[Urceopolis (City)|Urceopolis]] on major feast days. The best known example is the symbolic carrying of the canopy over the {{wp|monstrance}} by four members of the house during the procession on the feast of {{wp|Corpus Christi}}. Their participation not only suggests the importance of the Eucharist to the family and nation, but also symbolizes the family's obedience and submission to the [[Catholic Church]]. | |||
