Whether private prayer or shared with others, the practice of Eucharistic Adoration invites us to pray in the presence of Jesus Christ under the appearance of a consecrated host. During Adoration, you may wish to sit in silence, simply heightening your awareness of the presence of God around you; have a conversation with Jesus; pray the rosary; or reflect on Scripture or other spiritual reading

Eucharistic Adoration Is the worship of the Eucharist outside of the Mass. The Eucharistic Host is displayed in a monstrance on the altar so that all can see and pray in the presence of Christ.

We can show our adoration to God in many ways, but in Eucharistic Adoration, we spend time adoring the true presence of Christ in the Eucharist.

The Catechism of the Catholic Church tells us that, “Adoration is the first attitude of man acknowledging that he is a creature before his Creator. It exalts the greatness of the Lord who made us and the almighty power of the Savior who sets us free from evil. Adoration is homage of the spirit to the “King of Glory, “respectful silence in the presence of the “ever greater” God. Adoration of the thrice-holy and sovereign God of love blends with humility and gives assurance to our supplications.” (CCC 2628)
