NEEDED: Adorers to Sit With Jesus
Can you schedule a 1/2 hour or hour?
Watch the video from the Knights of Columbus Supreme Council to learn about Eucharistic Adoration.
Adoration hours are expanding from 6am-10pm daily THIS Sunday, May 10, so we need many new adorers!
There are NO adorers scheduled to be with Jesus at the hours listed below. Having scheduled adorers enables our parish to offer adoration for everyone. Is God calling you to sign up for a weekly half-hour or hour?
Requesting a substitute is easy, and you're much more likely to spend time with Jesus if you're scheduled to be there! See you there...
