Sacramental and Spiritual Life
The Eucharist is the source and summit of our life of faith. All are welcome to join us as often as possible at the celebration of the Eucharist. Eucharistic Adoration is held every Thursday from 3:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. Confession is also heard from 5:00 PM to 6:00 PM. Spending time with Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament is an opportunity to give God praise and thanks, to listen for God's will in your life, to express love for Jesus, and to ask for and receive the graces you need to grow in your life of faith. Rosary is prayed before Sunday Masses and the first Thursday of each month at 7:00 p.m. during Eucharistic Adoration.
