Building Foundations for Our Future

“Could you not watch one hour with me?” (Mt. 26:40)

Gift of Love	Organized adoration of the Blessed Sacrament around the clock is an expression of our love for Jesus. It goes beyond our regular Sunday Mass attendance in telling Jesus we truly care for Him.
Statement of Faith	Perpetual Adoration is a statement of our faith. We are witnessing to our belief that Jesus is really present in the Eucharist- Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity.
Opportunity for Growth	By placing ourselves in prayer before the Blessed Sacrament on a regular basis, we offer God the opportunity to change us, to help us reflect His love more in our lives, and to open ourselves to His will.
Spiritual Renewal	Perpetual Adoration offers a weekly retreat from the pressures and distractions of secular life. It’s a welcome respite, a chance to recharge spiritually, and to renew your energy and determination to model our daily lives on Jesus.
God’s Blessings	Perpetual Adoration helps release God’s merciful love upon the world. Just as a single person’s prayers can make a difference, so too can our united expression of love for Jesus. Pope John Paul II has said that “the best, the surest and the most effective way of establishing peace on the face of the earth is through the great power of Perpetual Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament”. Only Jesus has the power and love to redirect the course of history back to the path of peace. The Eucharist brings peace to human hearts.
