This feast is celebrated in the Latin Church on the Thursday after Trinity Sunday to solemnly commemorate the institution of the Holy Eucharist. The instrument in the hand of Divine Providence was St. Juliana of Mont Cornillon, in Belgium. She was born in 1193 at Retines near Liège. Orphaned at an early age, she was educated by the Augustinian nuns of Mont Cornillon. Here she in time made her religious profession and later became superioress. Intrigues of various kinds several times drove her from her convent. She died 5 April, 1258, at the House of the Cistercian nuns at Fosses, and was buried at Villiers. Juliana, from her early youth, had a great veneration for the Blessed Sacrement, and always longed for a special feast in its honour. This desire is said to have been increased by a vision of the Church under the appearance of the full moon having one dark spot, which signified the absence of such a solemnity. She made known her ideas to Robert de Thorete, then Bishop of Liège, to the learned Dominican Hugh, later cardinal legate in the Netherlands, and to Jacques Pantaléon, at that time Archedeacon of Liège, afterwards Bishop of Verdun, Patriarch of Jerusalem and finally Pope Urban IV.  1, record 1, English, - Corpus%20Christi

La Fête-Dieu ou Corpus Christi est une fête religieuse catholique célébrée le jeudi qui suit la Trinité (le huitième dimanche après Pâques), c'est-à-dire soixante jours après Pâques. Actuellement, le nom officiel de la fête est Solennité du corps et du sang du Christ. Cette fête commémore l'institution du sacrement de l'Eucharistie. Aux États-Unis, on célèbre cette fête trois jours plus tard, soit le dimanche suivant la Trinité. Après cette fête, le temps ordinaire reprend. La Fête-Dieu est un jour férié dans certains pays catholiques. La Fête-Dieu fut introduite d'abord dès 1246 dans le diocèse de Liège sous l'impulsion de Julienne de Cornillon, puis pour toute l'Église catholique en 1264 par le pape Urbain IV.  1, record 1, French, - F%C3%AAte%2DDieu
