On the 2nd Wednesday of every month 7:00-8:00 p.m. in the Upper Church, Deacon Stephen will begin with Exposition of the Blessed Sacrament followed by an hour of silent prayer; he will close with Benediction and Reposition. During Holy Hour, Father Linus will hear confessions. All are welcome!
If you have never been to Adoration before, here is a list of 12 things you can do there:
• Thank Jesus for the Sacraments.
• For a time, don’t DO anything. Be with Him, as a friend, while He works.
• Ask Him if that is perhaps what he wants you to “do” more often.
• Tell Him your failures. Ask for help. Then listen.
• Slowly recite the Beatitudes.
• Say one Our Father slowly.
• Say the Creed slowly.
• Slowly recite a favorite psalm. Perhaps Psalm 51, the Miserere, one or two lines at a time.
• Pray for a great love of the Cross.
• See Our Lord in His Passion… stand there, with Him, as Our Lady does.
• Lean into the hurricane of graces coming from the monstrance.
• Consider the blinding Uncreated Light shining out from Him.
Come and go as you please. Spend five minutes, spend the whole hour, or anything in between.
