“…He brought his disciples in the garden and he said to them. ‘Stay with me. Pray with me.‘ That’s what Jesus is inviting us into during Adoration. When we’re in front of the Blessed Sacrament we experience the Lord’s presence in a very profound way. To me, that is what I enjoy most about Adoration – having that moment to simply pour out my heart and maybe say nothing, but just be there with the Lord as a
friend.” Bishop Robert J. Brennan
Adoration is basically the worship of the Eucharist or Blessed Sacrament outside of the Mass. The Blessed Sacrament is displayed in a monstrance on the altar so that all can see and pray in His presence. Anyone can go to Adoration.
Keep in mind you are in the presence of Christ. When entering, it is proper to genuflect on one or two knees and to cross yourself, as you would anytime you were in the presence of the Blessed Sacrament. If there are other Adorers, it is respectful to maintain silence. The exception to this is when Adoration is being led as special service where there may be praying as a group or worship music.
While you are in Adoration, this is your special time with Christ. You can pray, read, or even just sit and enjoy His company and friendship.
We invite you to pray the 9 Days for Life Novena with us!
Prayers led by Bishop Robert J. Brennan of the Columbus Diocese, along with Mark Huddy and Jerry Freewalt.
Each audio is 2.5 minutes long. Prayers originate from USCCB’s 9-Days for Life Novena
With these guided prayers you are encouraged to also make an act of reparation through a sacrifice, prayer, or act of penance.
We will be broadcasting EWTN’s Christmas Programming on December 24 and 25th.

O most holy heart of Jesus, fountain of every blessing, I adore you, I love you, and with lively sorrow for my sins I offer you this poor heart of mine. Make me humble, patient, pure and wholly obedient to your will. Grant, Good Jesus, that I may live in you and for you. Protect me in the midst of danger. Comfort me in my afflictions. Give me health of body, assistance in my temporal needs, your blessing on all that I do, and the grace of a holy death. Amen.

We can become saints in the simple accomplishment of daily life, in the beaten track, the simple path of Nazareth, without adding anything but the great sense of faith and the flame of charity. Look at Mary in Nazareth–no halo, no pedestal, no miracle. Yet she is the Queen of Heaven.” – Fr. Mateo Crawley-Boevey, a great Apostle to the Sacred Heart.
