ADORATION
Mission
Our mission is to provide a place and opportunity for men, women, youth and children to adore Jesus Christ truly present in the Blessed Sacrament. During the Eucharistic Adoration hours, Jesus is not reposed in the tabernacle, but is visible in the monstrance in our Blessed Sacrament Chapel.
We encourage more and more people to show their love for Jesus by spending some time with Him. Many people “claim” a specific hour or hours, and others simply “drop in” for a short while to be in the Lord’s presence and pray in gratitude, thanksgiving and adoration.
Everyone is welcome.
Eucharistic Adoration is held in our Blessed Sacrament Chapel which is the area beyond the altar and behind the glass
Daily 6:15 a.m.—10:00 p.m.
Monday through Friday
&
Saturday 7:15 a.m.—3:00 p.m.
The Adoration Chapel is closed from Saturday at 3:00 p.m. until Monday at 6:15 a.m., while weekend Masses are being celebrated.
"The time you spend with Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament is the best time you will spend on earth. Each moment that you spend with Jesus will deepen your union with Him and make your soul everlastingly more glorious and beautiful in Heaven, and will help bring about everlasting peace on earth.
" Blessed Mother Teresa of Calcutta”
