On Friday, October 4, we will have 24 hours of Eucharistic adoration beginning immediately after the 8:30 Mass.  Adoration will continue throughout the day and night ending with Benediction at 8 A.M. Saturday morning, followed by the 8:30 Mass.  Security will be present during the night for your safety. 

Consider:

  • Sign up for an hour and bring the family
  • Sign up for an hour and pray in silence by yourself to the Lord
  • Get a sitter and sign up as a couple
  • Give one hour of your busy life to the Lord either day

Adoration changes lives.  Think about it.  Every hour 4 adorers are needed. 

The rosary will be prayed every hour.
