Purpose Of Life

 What Is The Ultimate Purpose?

Peter Kreeft in his book Because God is Real reminds us that: “Nothing could be more relevant to your life than the doctrine of the Trinity.  For life is meaningless to you unless you know life’s meaning.  And the meaning of life, the ultimate purpose of life, the greater good, the supreme value, is love.  And the doctrine of the Trinity is the foundation of that, because it means that love “goes all the way up” into the ultimate reality, into the very essence of God.  The doctrine of the Trinity means that God is love.”


“Love” is waiting for you in the Adoration Chapel.  You are encouraged not only to visit the chapel, but to visit often.  It’s up to you … once you die, you can’t help yourself any longer.

Experience The Essence That Leads To Peace

 Experience The Essence Resulting In God’s Peace

The  body of Christ, in the monstrance, is one place where we give praise and glory to the God of All and where we petition the Beloved to tend to our deepest needs.  The Eucharist in the monstrance is the living presence of God and one way in which Christ manifests Himself for us.  Christ is the essence of all - of nature, ideas, relationships, energy.  Whenever, wherever our hearts are moved to prayer, to supplication, to praise, glory, or adoration, we abide in the essence of Christ.  Adoration is a state of being, and Christ’s body - whether manifested in the monstrance, in the love between mother and child, or in the miracle of photosynthesis that creates oxygen - is an invitation and a path to the sacred.


To experience the essence of Christ is an important step to better our relationship with the Divine.  Give yourself a ‘timeout’ and take a few moments to sit in the essence of God and experience true peace that only God can provide.  It can be habit forming.
