St. John the Baptist Parish recently issued the following announcement.
Holy Family Parish will have our “First Week” Eucharistic Adoration, Monday, Nov. 1st -
Friday, Nov. 5th. We are seeking faithful Adorers to sign-up and spend an hour with
Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament. Our ability to provide these opportunities and grow
this devotion depends on the active participation and willingness of our parishioners to
fill in the schedule so someone is always present, when the Blessed Sacrament is exposed. As an extension of the Liturgy, this is a time to meditate more deeply on the
mystery and adore Jesus in the ultimate Sacrament of Love. Our schedule of days,
times, and locations are listed below - consider visiting Jesus at each of our five churches during this first week of November!
We will also have a Family and Children’s Holy Hour at St. John the Baptist at 10:00 AM on Friday, Nov. 5th. During this
time, families are encouraged to stop in with their little ones to experience the Real Presence of Christ, without the pressure of
silence.
Benediction: We will have Benediction on Wednesday, November 3rd at St. Irenaeus at 6:15PM.
First Friday Benediction (SJB): The students of Holy Family School are not in session, Friday November 5th, so there will
be no mid-day Benediction this First Friday. Adoration will continue until 7:00 PM.
Holy Family Parish also offers regular opportunities for Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament several times throughout
the week:
Mondays at SJAN, prior to 6:30PM Mass, starting at 5:30PM
Wednesdays at STI, prior to 6:30PM Mass, starting at 5:30PM
Saturdays at SJB, following 9:00AM Mass, until 10:30AM
Consider making a regular Holy Hour. Consider coming to daily Mass. Consider doing both! Eucharistic Adoration is an
extension of the Liturgy. What great opportunities to receive Jesus in Eucharist, and to also spend time with Him, in Adoration!
Weekly Adoration times are aligned with our regularly scheduled Confessions, so there is also opportunity for
Sacrament of Reconciliation: Mondays at SJAN: 6:00 PM to 6:20 PM
Wednesdays at STI: 6:00 PM to 6:20 PM
Saturdays at SJB: 9:30 AM
