What is Eucharistic Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament?
Perpetual Eucharistic Adoration is the adoration of Jesus Christ present in the Holy Eucharist. In the many Churches that have this adoration, the Eucharist is displayed in a special holder called a monstrance, and people come to pray and worship Jesus continually throughout the day and often the night. Christ’s great love for us was shown when he was crucified on the cross to pay the penalty for our sins and give us eternal life. He loves us without limit, and offers Himself to us in the Holy sacrament of the Eucharist. Can we not give Jesus a few minutes of love and adoration in return?
The Blessings of Eucharistic Adoration for Our...
• FAMILIES
“The spiritual lives of our families are strengthened through our Holy Hour.” (Venerable Pope John Paul II)
• CHILDREN
Do we wish to convert our children? We should follow the example of Saints such as St. Monica who, besides attending daily Mass, would also visit the Blessed Sacrament twice a day praying for her worldly child. Her prayers definitely worked, as today we know her child as St. Augustine. (St. Monica)
• PARISH AND COMMUNITY
Being such a powerhouse of grace, Eucharistic Adoration extends its influence far beyond the individual adorers, touching their homes and families and reaching out to the parish community and beyond.” (Pope Paul VI)
• VOCATIONS
We need to take the time to volunteer to cover an hour of adoration a week at our local adoration chapel. Our faithful attendance and reverence is a source for conversions and vocations. Such was the case with Blessed Nicholas when, in one Eucharistic procession, he witnessed such reverence towards the Blessed Sacrament that he not only converted to Catholicism but also became a Priest. (Blessed Nicholas Steno)
• COUNTRY
"Adoration will heal our Church and thus our nation and thus our world...Adoration is more powerful
for construction than nuclear bombs are for destruction." (Peter Kreeft)
• WORLD
“In adoration we draw the whole world with us and raise it to God.” (Venerable Pope John Paul II)
Come, let us adore Him!!
