    • "There is nothing so great as the Eucharist."

      "IF GOD HAD SOMETHING MORE PRECIOUS, HE WOULD HAVE GIVEN IT TO US."

      - St. John Vianney

      Adoration with Silence, Music, Candlelight
      7:00-8:00pm
      
    • What is Adoration?

      On the altar, in the sacred vessel Jesus is really present among us. We see bread but it is truly Jesus Christ in body, blood, soul and divinity. We can meet him NOW as his closest friends did 2000 years ago. We might not see him with our eyes in his human appearance but we can encounter him Heart to heart. We can see him as though through a veil, and come to him with our worries, joys, hopes and problems. He is happy to see us; He listens and He wants to show us His care and love. 
      The best way to hear Him is in silence.
