EUCHARISTIC ADORATION

Eucharistic Adoration is a devotional practice of adoring and praying in the Real Presence of Our Lord Jesus Christ in the Holy Eucharist. The Eucharist is displayed in a special vessel called a monstrance, and Adorers are present with Jesus at all times when the Eucharist is present.

Eucharistic Adoration is held Monday through Friday, 7 AM until 8 PM.

The Blessed Sacrament will be removed from the tabernacle and placed in the monstrance on the altar after the 6:30 AM Mass and will be reposed to the tabernacle at 8:00 PM each weekday.

Who can come to Adoration?
Everyone is welcome to come before Our Lord Jesus Christ during Eucharistic Adoration. Invite family, neighbors, and friends to join you. Your joy with the Lord may be what others are looking for.
How long must I stay?
There is no set amount of time that one must stay at Adoration. Please feel welcome to drop-in to say a quick hello to Jesus. Do not underestimate the graces that will come from any visit.
What does it mean to be an Adorer?
Adorers commit to spending an hour or more with Jesus once a week, ensuring that He is never left alone in the monstrance. This dedication enables Eucharistic Adoration for anyone desiring a brief visit with Jesus. When you become a scheduled adorer, you'll have a specific hour in the chapel. Scheduled adorers and substitutes are required to sign in each visit using Adoration Pro, an online platform, ensuring continuous presence during adoration and identifying schedule gaps.
How do I become an Adorer?
Every adorer can select the hour that suits them best. You can choose to be a regular or substitute adorer and opt-in to notifications for your scheduled hours. Choosing a time that aligns with your schedule will assist you in honoring your commitment. You have the flexibility to register at your convenience, request a substitute if needed, and adjust your slot through our Adoration Pro page.

What happens if the person scheduled after me does not show up?
If you are willing to stay, you are welcome to stay. If you need to leave, please call the Adoration Coordinator whose number will be listed in the chapel. Be assured, the likelihood of this happening is nearly impossible.
How do I spend my Hour at Adoration?
Let the Holy Spirit guide you. This is your personal time with Jesus. There are no set prayers. After entering church, genuflect on one knee or two, if you cannot genuflect a simple bow. You may offer a prayer of Adoration to begin your Holy Hour. You may sit or kneel. Spend this time contemplating that you are in the presence of God. Converse with Him. You can read Scripture or spiritual books, journal, pray the rosary or spend time just talking with Jesus. It’s not about what you do, but who you are with.

As Father John Ricardo says, “Just waste some time with Him.” If God was not behind the veil of the Eucharist, what would you do? Christ says we are no longer servants but friends, so simply spend some time with your friend. He loves you and is calling you.
