Does Your Prayer Life Need Improvement?

 Lest You Forget

“In every age the followers of Jesus come to Him and ask, 'Lord, teach us to pray.’”

What we ask for, we receive.  Jesus gives us the profound gift of prayer.  We knock and the door is opened to us, and we are able to enter into the presence of the living God.  We seek and we find the face of the Father, Who gives us our name and calls us to friendship.

Prayer is the promise and a privilege that Jesus makes possible for the Children of God.  Through Him we can dare to call God ‘Our Father’ and speak with Him in loving dialogue.”

(Most Reverend Jose H. Gomez  Archbishop of Los Angeles  Apr 2016)

Let Him know how much you appreciate what He has done for you by stopping by the Adoration Chapel and telling Him face to face.

Get Closer

 A Way To Become Holier

Every day is a chance.  Every hour an opportunity.  Every moment a precious gift.  Don’t waste your chance, opportunity or precious gift.  Spend them in the presence of God. That’s easier than you think because God is always with you; the problem is you’re not always with Him.  Say this short prayer at the beginning of every day and after a few days your awareness of his presence within will increase to the point you will have a desire to spend face time in His Real Presence.

“Dear Lord, I need your help today to be aware that you are always with me.  Thank you.”

Read The Post - Discover The Secret

What’s The Secret?

According to St John Paul II, “Christ’s resurrection is the strength, the secret of Christianity.  It is not a question of mythology or of mere symbolism, but of a concrete event.  It is confirmed by sure and convincing proofs.  The acceptance of this truth, although the fruit of the Holy Spirit’s grace, rests at the same time on a solid historical base.”

By trading some of your couch time for chapel time you enhance that positive internal change brought about by the Indwelling Trinity.  There is no ‘down side’ - you have EVERYTHING to gain.  Why not start today?

Show Jesus Your Appriciation

No Greater Love …

Jesus loves us beyond measure.  One way He asks us to return love and appreciation of all He does for us is to spend one quiet hour with Him each week in Eucharistic Adoration.  “Where your treasure is, there is your heart …”, “Could you not watch one hour with Me?” (Mt 6:21; 26:40)

Express your love by committing to an hour of adoration by visiting                                    your closest Adoration Chapel. The rewards are heavenly.

Eucharistic Adoration Is The Need Of Our Time

Our World Desperately Needs Eucharistic Adoration

St Peter Julian Eymard underlined the urgency of Eucharistic Adoration for the renewal of our parishes and of the world:

"Today solemn exposition of Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament is the grace and the need of our time.  It is the sovereign grace.  Exposition is the powerful weapon at the disposal of the Church and of the faithful ... We are not afraid to say: the Worship and the Exposition of the Most Blessed Sacrament is the need of our time ... This worship is necessary to save society.  Society is dying because it has no center of truth and charity, but it will be reborn in full force when all its members gather around the life of Jesus in the Eucharist.  Go back to the source, to Jesus - especially to Jesus in the Eucharist ... It is well known: a civilization grows or decreases according to its worship of the Blessed Eucharist.  This is its life and the measure of its faith, its love, its virtue.  What the reign of the Eucharist will bring to pass!  Impiety and ingratitude have reigned on earth for long enough.  Thy kingdom come!"

Experience a life closer to Our Lord simply by spending one hour a week in Eucharistic Adoration.  Become a Committed Adorer now by clicking on the URL below and adding your name on any of the 90 hours.

Divine Source Of Peace

 True Source of Peace

The message of Divine Mercy, relayed through St. Faustina, is that God is merciful.  He is love itself poured out for us, and He wants no one to escape that merciful love.

God wants us to turn to Him with trust and repentance while it is still time of mercy, before He comes as the just judge.  This turning is the only source of peace for mankind.  Turning to and imploring God’s mercy is the answer to the troubled world, and is the answer to any troubled things affecting your life.  There is no escaping that answer.

Why not join the many who have found peace by becoming a regular Eucharistic Adorer.  Do it now … don’t wait because you don’t know if you have tomorrow.

I Thirst For You … You must never doubt my mercy, my acceptance of you, my desire to forgive, my longing to bless you and live my life in you.

Support On Our Spiritual Journey

Help Through Our Spiritual Journey

Last Thursday our Lord Jesus Christ gave to us the greatest gift He possibly could have while  on earth, Himself.  This gift is meant to carry us through our spiritual journey on earth, and prepare us for meeting Him in His heavenly home.

To take full advantage of this gift we must embrace it and use it to experience “the greatest peace, calm and joy that comes from being in the presence of the Bridegroom of our souls.”  No one, certainly nothing else on this earth, will ultimately satisfy our deepest longings.  In all creation, in all the beautiful things and people He has made, we see something of Him.

In the Eucharist, we see Him.  Not as we shall see Him when we leave this world, not as He wants to be known by us in eternity, but in the form in which He has chosen to come to us on our earthly journey.  Someday, when this present darkness ends and God is “all in all,” we shall see His beloved face, and we shall be embraced by and love the One Who made us out of love, redeemed us, gave Himself to darkest death for us.

For now, we gaze up at Him as our food encircled by light.  The Eucharist we adore is the window to heaven, the true Body of Our Lord truly present.  “Oh come let us adore Him.”
