Eucharistic Adoration

Home / Parish Club / Eucharistic Adoration

Serving at the altar is one of the most meaningful ways young people can participate in the life of our parish. There’s a quiet dignity in lighting the candles, carrying the cross, or assisting the priest during Mass—moments that help deepen faith and build confidence in equal measure.​

About

During Adoration, the Blessed Sacrament is exposed in a monstrance on the altar, and parishioners are invited to spend time in prayer before Jesus truly present in the Eucharist. There’s no agenda, no prescribed prayers you must say, no right or wrong way to do it. Some people pray the Rosary, others read Scripture, and many simply sit in quiet contemplation. It’s an hour—or even just ten minutes—carved out of your busy life to encounter Christ in profound silence.

If you’ve ever felt spiritually depleted, struggling to pray amidst daily chaos, or simply yearning for deeper connection with God, Adoration might be exactly what you need. First-timers often say they weren’t sure what to expect but left feeling surprisingly peaceful. You don’t need to be a “prayer expert”—just bring yourself and whatever’s on your heart.
