About this Event

Eucharistic Exposition, Adoration and Benediction

You are invited to come and grow in faith and love of our Lord by spending a quiet hour in Eucharistic Adoration.  Whether you regularly visit the Lord, or have never experienced the quiet and peace of praying before our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament, all are invited to participate.

The importance of Eucharistic Adoration is shown in the fact that the Church has a ritual that regulates it: the Rite of Eucharistic Exposition and Benediction. This is an extension of the adoration of the Blessed Sacrament which occurs in every Mass: "Behold the Lamb of God, behold him who takes away the sins of the world. Blessed are those called to the supper of the Lamb." Exposition of the Blessed Sacrament flows from the sacrifice of the Mass and serves to deepen our hunger for Communion with Christ and the rest of the Church.  The Rite concludes with the ordained minister blessing the faithful with the Blessed Sacrament.

"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.”  – St. Mother Teresa of Calcutta
