GRACES OF PERPETUAL EUCHARISTIC ADORATION

 

1. Each holy hour that you make brings the world and everyone in the world closer to Christ.

 

2. In your holy hour you are presenting to Christ all those who do not know Him or are far from Him. You keep watch in His Presence on heir behalf, bringing down upon these souls in most need of God's mercy the Precious Blood of the Lamb so that, instead of going to hell hey go to heaven to be with God for all eternity.  

 

3. Your holy hour deepens your union with Christ and brings great joy to His Heart and will make your soul everlastingly more glorious for all eternity.

 

4. Through perpetual adoration you contribute to the radical transformation of the whole world.

 

5. Each person that spends time in the presence of Jesus in the Most Blessed Sacrament grows in holiness. Communally, increased Mass attendance, conversions, the return of fallen away Catholics and vocations to the Priesthood and Religious life are among the many fruits of Perpetual Eucharistic Adoration. Through our Holy Hours of prayer, Our Holy Father declared that we are contributing to "the radical transformation of the world," the "establishing of everlasting peace," and the coming of Christ's Kingdom on Earth.

 

 

COMMITMENT TO PERPETUAL ADORATION

Each adorer commits to being a critical link in an unbroken chain of love offered to Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament whereby the parish proclaims Him King by giving to Him the honor and glory. due His name through Perpetual Adoration. "These are the ones who have survived the great period of trial. They have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. It was this that brought them before God's throne; day and night. they minister to Him in His temple. He who sits on the throne will give them shelter....for the Lamb on the throne will shepherd them. He will lead them to springs of life-giving water and God will wipe every tear from their eyes." Rev. 7: 14-17.

Therefore, our parish will contribute to the coming of the Eucharistic Reign of Christ; for when there are enough chapels of Perpetual Adoration proclaiming Christ King He will claim His Kingdom. As scripture promises: "then I saw a new heavens and a new earth... .there shall be no more death or mourning, crying out or pain for the former world has passed away."

Rev. 21:1,4
