EUCHARISTIC ADORATION

Let me express, publicly, my heartfelt gratitude to everyone who participated in any way to inaugurate the days of Eucharistic Adoration. I have spoken of an intimate relationship with Jesus as a need in our society. In my heart, as person, priest, and Pastor, I sensed the depth of that relationship growing already. For those who were present with Jesus in the Eucharist for an hour, I am sure your relationship with the Lord is different ... just from that one experience. For me, spending the time before the Lord is a marvelous opportunity to listen to God who tries to speak to me through all of the activities of the day. But in those minutes of quiet how strong is the voice of the Holy Spirit! Again, many thanks to Maika Fowler and her leadership team. The blessings you have brought to many of us and the parish is remarkable.
