Knowing the power of prayer, and trusting in the continued presence of our Lord Jesus Christ, we recognize that special times of prayer can be beneficial to all. Some of the greatest saints, who achieved great things for the Church and the world, spent a great deal of time in monasteries in prayer. Our Lord Himself drew to the desert to pray and to encounter the Father there. Moses in prayer before the Lord successfully petitioned for the good of the people and God heard his prayers. The Practice of the Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament is a way to sacrifice an hour of your time praying for the needs of our community and world. It is also a way to draw closer to the Lord and to be a more balanced person and a more effective minister to others.
Beginning on August 16th. 2023 we will have two regularly scheduled options for adoration in our parish
Wednesdays, Thursdays & Fridays: our Adoration Chapel will be open from 8:00am to 8:00pm with the Blessed Sacrament exposed for prayer. Adorers are asked to use the marked door at the back of the convent to enter. .
First Fridays: Each First Friday of the Month at Holy Spirit Church there is Mass at 6:30pm followed by adoration from 7:00 - 7:30pm. Priests are available for confessions during this adoration time.
In order to offer Adoration we require 2 volunteers dedicated to attending Adoration during each hour.
We are currently looking for volunteers who can committ to attending adoration for 1 hour on Thursday mornings and Friday evenings. If you can help please contact Maryann Lindgren using the form below or by phone at 508-341-9132.
