EUCHARISTIC ADORATION

 

WHAT IS PERPETUAL ADORATION??

 

Perpetual Eucharistic Adoration is simply our response to Jesus’ love for us, whereby each of us is willing to spend quiet time in HIS EUCHARISTIC PRESENCE.  Jesus said “come to ME all of you who are weary and find life burdensome and I will refresh you.”

 

Open Hours: Tuesday 12:00 noon; Wednesday 5:00 PM, Thursday 3:00 PM; Friday: 9:00 AM and 1:00 PM.
