40 Hours Eucharistic Devotions begin next week!

March 12 - 14 - Click for Schedule

Father is so excited for our annual Eucharistic Devotions.

Father Matthew Smith will be our guest homilist for the three evenings, offering a reflection on the Eucharist each evening (Sunday, Monday & Tuesday) at 7pm. On Tuesday evening Bishop Gainer will be here to preside and many priests & deacons have accepted our invitation to come for a time of fraternity and, if they are able, to stay for the closing service. We need people to sign up to spend time with the Blessed Sacrament during the day while it is exposed in the monstrance. We have been talking about “personal encounters with the Lord.” There is no better encounter with Him than in the Blessed Sacrament exposed on the altar.
