Christ, truly present in the Eucharist, is displayed on the altar to be adored, praised, and petitioned. Some appropriate music is played during this time of prayer. There is also Confession available during adoration. Adoration lasts one hour. Please meet us in the lobby of Val so that we may proceed to the Newman Center at UMass together.
“Certainly amongst all devotions, after that of receiving the Sacraments, that of adoring Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament holds first place, is most pleasing to God, and most useful to ourselves. Do not then, o devout soul, refuse to begin this devotion.” -St. Alphonsus
