Adoration is a sign of devotion to and worship of Jesus who is present Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity in the Eucharist. Spending time with the Eucharistic Presence of our Lord is a continuation of the Celebration of the Eucharist at Mass.

You can come and spend as much time with the Eucharistic Presence of our Lord as you like during these hours. Many adorers spend this time in prayer or just sitting in the Lord’s presence. It is perfectly acceptable to bring your Bible or other spiritual reading. In the back of the chapel there are prayer books for Eucharistic Adoration.
Eucharistic Guardians provide this ministry by committing to an hour of Adoration time each week. We always welcome new adorers. Click below to tell us you're interested in more information.
Through the centuries, saints have also composed prayers for making visits to the Blessed Sacrament.

Eucharistic celebrations of any nature are sometimes initiated with the first four or at least the first stanza of the Pange lingua hymn, and often concluded with the Tantum ergo(being the other two stanzas of the same hymn), or at the least the versicle and oration attached to the Tantum ergo (see the article). These hymns and orations are from the Daily Office for Corpus Christi, composed by St. Thomas Aquinas.
