Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament
As Jesus wants us to spend time with Him, we too have needs, hurts, joys, and sorrows that we want to share only with Our Lord and Savior. By coming to Adoration we give Jesus great honor and act with humility by acknowledging our need for, and dependence upon Him – our Creator.
During Adoration, a Consecrated Host is placed in the center of a sacred vessel called a Monstrance. The word Monstrance means “to show.” The Monstrance is then set in a very special place for all to see and worship.
Join us in Adoration … a quiet time spent in prayer before Jesus.
Adoration Schedule: Monday through Friday, 9:00 am to 5:00 pm at the St. Mark Chapel

At the Sunday 9:45 am mass, parishioners will take turns in bringing the Vocation Cross home. Those who take the Cross will pray each day, the Vocation Prayer and the Rosary.
Sign-up sheets are available at the Sunday Masses. If you wish to participate but are unable to attend the 9:45 AM mass, please indicate in the sign-up sheet and we will make arrangements for you to get the Vocation Cross and prayer.
