Contemplation [of the Blessed Sacrament in Adoration] prolongs Communion and enables one to meet Christ, true God and true man, in a lasting way, to let oneself be seen by him and to experience his presence. When we contemplate him present in the Blessed Sacrament of the altar, Christ draws near to us and becomes more intimate to us than we are to ourselves. He grants us a share in his divine life in a transforming union and, in the Spirit, He gives us access to the Father, as He himself said to Philip: “He who has seen me has seen the Father” (Jn. 14:9). … Remaining in silence before the Blessed Sacrament, it is Christ totally and really present whom we discover, whom we adore and with whom we are in contact. – Blessed John Paul II.
The Eucharist is heart and soul of the Church, because the Eucharist is the Lord. One of the ways we can grow in union with Jesus is through Eucharistic Adoration. A consecrated Host is place in a beautiful monstrance to highlight the Lord’s presence among us. The faithful come to Adoration to spend time in quiet prayer and to be nourished by the Lord’s loving presence. Parishioners may spend a half hour or an hour in prayer, either praying the rosary, praying the bible or from a prayer book, or just being silent. In Eucharistic Adoration the Lord always gives us the grace for the challenges of life.
Adoration is open to anyone. Please maintain a disposition of silence and reverence in the chapel.
Note: The Adoration Chapel is closed on Saturday and Sunday
