Renewal Is Centuries Old

 Renewal Is Centuries Old

God used St. Peter Julian Eymard (1811/1868) to renew Eucharistic devotion in 19th-century France, making him a fitting example and patron for our own nation's Eucharistic revival.

In his preaching St Peter Julian Eymard underlined the urgency of Eucharistic Adoration for the renewals of Catholic 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!”


It’s time we all participate in the Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament asking Our Lord to renew our parishes and society.

Let People See God’s Love In You

Make a conscious effort throughout the day to reflect the fire of God’s love in your heart through goodness, joy, forgiveness, peace, and prayer.  A great way to grow His love is to spend face time with our Lord in the chapel.  Now that Summer is here and no school scheduled, fewer people will be stopping by the chapel for a quick visit.  This gives us the opportunity for a much more intimate visit in the True Presence of Our Lord and Savior.

Show God your love for Him by scheduling a weekly visit.

Good Relationship Takes Time

 All Relationship Takes Time To Grow


We have to remember that building a relationship with God takes time and a commitment to regular communication with Him.  That communication takes the form of talking to Him, as well as sitting in silence so that we can hear what He has to say to us.

We all struggle with juggling responsibilities and sometimes forget to pray during our busy day, and later we find ourselves out of energy.  We ask God to remind us how much He loves us, and how much He wants us to know and love Him in return.  God has said to each of us, "I have called you by name, you are mine," and by doing so He is telling us He will not forget us, and that He is always there for us.


One of the best ways we can build relationship with Him is through Eucharistic Adoration.  'Chapel Time' affords you the opportunity for more and uninterrupted communication, resulting in a better relationship that will carry you into eternity.


If you are not a regular 'adorer' here is your invitation to join those at Immaculate Heart of Mary who adore every week.  Make the commitment ... realize the benefit now, as well as in eternity.


Now that summer is here, don't forget how important 'Chapel Time' is.

Not All Of Jesus' Words Are Recording In The Bible

Our Lord personally told a Benedictine Monk:

"More good can be done in a single hour of adoration than in a hundred days of uninterrupted preaching and apostolic labors, for when you are with Me, I am working for you.  Time spent in My presence is not time lost.  It is the multiplication of time and the magnification of your limited strength into an energy that comes from Me, an energy by which I will do great things through you."
  In Sinu Jesu  p.223

If you're not already scheduled for an hour each week in the presence of God, now may be the time to consider it and start reaping the benefits.  It's easier to do than most people think ... and you won't know unless you try.
