"As you peruse this website, discovering the many activities and
opportunities for prayer that help unite us as a parish family,
know that you are most welcome."
EUCHARISTIC ADORATION We ask our parishioners and friends to join us in
spending one hour with Jesus. At the present time we have open hours on
Tuesday nights at 11 p.m. and Thursday nights at midnight. There are also many
hours with only one person scheduled. By joining with another person committed
to a certain hour each week there is automatic coverage when one is unable to
be there for their hour. When one person is responsible for an hour substitutes
are available. As it becomes necessary for some people to leave due to a change
of circumstances in  their lives it becomes necessary to recruit new members. We
have 142 members committed to spend one hour in adoration each week along
with a  list of substitutes. Won't you consider joining with us in adoration of
Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament. A peaceful hour of prayer and sharing with our
Lord. For more information please call Eydie Kenny at 489-8816.
