Understood simply, Euharistic Adoration is adoring or honouring the Eucharistic Presence of Christ. In a deeper sense, it involves “the contemplation of the Mystery of Christ truly present before us” During Eucharistic Adoration, we “watch and wait”, we remain “silent” in His Presence and open ourselves to His Graces which flow from the Eucharist… By worshiping the Eucharistic Jesus, we become what God wants us to be! Like a magnet, the Lord draws us to Himself and gently transforms us. In its fullest essence… Eucharistic Adoration is “God and Man reaching out for each other, at the same time!” Light the candle before the Blessed Sacrament: On Tuesdays, if you wish to light a candle on the Altar before the Blessed Sacrament in the memory of your family members. The name of your intention will be listed in the parish bulletin. Please contact the parish office to arrange, cost will be $20.00. ========================== Adoration Lamps Tuesday, October 20 +Mary Susan Romano +Francesco Romano Longmead family ============================ CHRISTMAS HELP We are now accepting names of individuals or families who require help this Christmas.
