Why Your Hour Matters: An Invitation to Eucharistic Adoration
There is a quiet miracle happening in our parish chapel each week. In the stillness, before the Real Presence of Jesus in the Eucharist, hearts are being strengthened, burdens are being lifted, and lives are being renewed. Yet open holy hours remain—times when the Lord waits in silence for someone to sit with Him.
If you’ve ever felt a nudge to spend more time in prayer, this may be your moment.
🌟 A Holy Hour
A holy hour is simply one hour set aside to be with Jesus—no pressure, no perfect words needed. Whether you pray the rosary, read Scripture, or sit quietly in His presence, the Lord receives it all with love.
🙏 Why Your Presence Matters
- It ensures Jesus is never left alone in the chapel.
- It strengthens our parish’s spiritual life.
- It deepens your own peace, clarity, and relationship with Christ.
- It is a gift you offer not only for yourself, but for the whole community.
🕯️ Who Can Sign Up
Anyone. Families, retirees, teens, busy parents—everyone can find a place in the quiet heart of Jesus. Even if you’ve never been to adoration before, this is a beautiful way to begin. Contact Deanna Bennigsdorf at deanna.bennigsdorf@gmail.com.

❤️ A Final Encouragement
If your heart feels even the smallest tug, consider it an invitation from Jesus Himself: “Could you not keep watch with me one hour?”
Your “yes” could be the answer to someone’s prayer—including your own.
