On April 26, the congregants of the 11:45 a.m. Mass poured out of Notre Dame’s Basilica of the Sacred Heart and joined a half dozen Holy Cross priests and the ND Women’s Liturgical Choir singing “Sing My Tongue the Savior’s Glory.” It was the beginning of the Eucharistic Procession that happens once a year at the University. 
Every Notre Dame student, past and present, can remember the first time they called Notre Dame “home.” Whether it was on the drive back to campus after Christmas break, or on the walk back to the dorm after a meal at the dining hall—they all remember how it felt to say those words: “I’m coming home.” From that moment on, Notre Dame represents a place to return to when it matters most—in times of fear, sorrow, and especially in times of celebration.
