Umbracullum

I'm sure it's a long time since anyone has seen one of these up here in Brisbane.
To those of you who can not recognize it or have never seen it before, it is an Umbracullum. A processional canopy in the form of an umbrella. It is used in minor processions of the blessed sacrament.
This particular one was donated to Marian Valley by the Brisbane chapter of the Alliance of the Holy Family International. It was meant for use at the adore, but something prevented it's use, now it will serve Marian Valley, much to the joy of Fr Prior.
