The Gift of Silence Leads to a Better Understanding of Jesus

Enter Into The Mystery

“If you seek God and want to find him; if you desire a life of the most intimate union with him, silence is the most direct path and the surest means of attaining it.  Silence is of capital importance because it enables the Church to walk in the footsteps of Jesus, imitating his thirty silent years in Nazareth, his forty days and forty nights of fasting and intimate dialogue with the Father in the solitude and silence of the desert.  Like Jesus, confronted with the demands of his Father’s will, we must seek silence in order to enter ever more deeply into the mystery of Christ.”  Robert Sarah The Power of Silence

If you seek to understand more deeply the mystery of Jesus a good starting point would be to share time with him in the silence of our Adoration Chapel.  Your mind cannot comprehend the happiness you bring to Our Lord when you are willing to spend some of your precious time in his presence in this unique way.  Discover for yourself the knowledge and peace that comes to us through Eucharistic Adoration.

Blessed Are They Who Do Not See ...

Believe Without Seeing

Many people take Jesus’ love and Presence in the Blessed Sacrament for granted because they can’t see Him in His human form. When asked to make a commitment for a specific hour in the chapel they hesitate and let everything else come before Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament.  What they don’t realize is that faith will make this commitment easy! “Faith is confident assurance concerning what we hope for, and conviction about things we do not see.” (Hb 11:11)

Faith helps us realize this with conviction: The most important thing that you will do this week is spend an hour with Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament. Your willingness to participate in Eucharistic Adoration is a precious expression of your faith that Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament is welcomed, loved, and adored by you.

Don’t be afraid to commit to one hour each week for fear that there may be times that you can’t make it.  AdorationPro has a built in substitute system to take care of emergencies.  Just think of the words from Scripture: “You have nothing whatsoever to fear from Him.  Get up.  He is calling you!” (Mk 10:50)

When you get to heaven, Jesus will spend all of eternity thanking you and loving you for the fidelity in spending one hour with Him in the Blessed Sacrament each week.  This is why He says: “Blessed are they who do not see and yet believe.” (Jn 20:29)

We ask Our Lady of Guadalupe to hear the cries of the suffering and offer to her maternal compassion and protection all who seek her heavenly intercession.

I Thirst For You … Open to me, come to me, thirst for me, give me your life - and I will prove to you how important you are to my heart.

Your Advent Opportunity

Advent Gives You A Blessed Opportunity

This Advent, as at the beginning of all Advents, the Church encourages us to lift our heads, trust in Jesus’ saving love and make room for him in our hearts, to discover hope amidst life's’ anxieties.  As we begin the season of Advent we need to take time to spiritually prepare for Christmas and the coming of Our Lord.  In every direction we turn we will be reminded and encouraged to “prepare” for Jesus’ coming into the world and to remember the real meaning of Christmas.

Prayer is the secret of preparation.  One of the best ways to pray is to spend time in Eucharistic Adoration in our chapel.  A popular definition of ‘prayer’ is ‘relationship with God’.  What a beautiful thing it would be if at the end of the next four weeks you could honestly say your relationship with God had improved.  Find time in each of the next four weeks to go to the chapel and simply sit in the presence of God.  You don’t even have to have an agenda - a simple prayer such as ‘Jesus, please help me improve my relationship with you’ - then just sit back and while contemplating the Holy Eucharist let God do the work: Nothing else to do, except to say “Thank You God” before you leave.

“I am with you always …” and in his great and wonderful plan of salvation remember that he has been awaiting for you in his real presence for twenty centuries.
