What is the purpose of Eucharistic Adoration? The Eucharist is the greatest gift given to the Church, the abiding presence of Jesus who desires to feed us, heal us, strengthen us and mold us into his own body. At the Second Vatican Council, the Church fathers wrote, “The Eucharist is the source and summit of the Christian life.” (Lumen Gentium 11).
Can you spend one hour each week with Our Eucharistic Lord? Experience the peace and hope that you will find in prayer. We have openings in the weekly schedule on Monday at 3:00pm, 5:00pm and 6:00pm. Other times are available as well. Please sign-up online at
adorationpro.org/lakemn (click on Weekly Commitment) or for more information, call Jane at
952-472-3825.
