Adoration Chapel

Our Adoration times are Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays from 8:30 a.m. to 9 p.m., and we hope to have at least two registered adorers for each hour. If you feel called to come and adore our Eucharistic Lord, signing up for an hour is easy! You can sign up by:

Thank you for your consideration!

That one hour in the Adoration Chapel is my time to thank God, honor Him, listen to Him, and to ask Him for forgiveness, guidance and strength. The fuller your life is, the more you need that quiet hour with God.

-- Kris Parod, parishioner at Holy Name of Jesus

What is Eucharistic Adoration?

Eucharistic Adoration is an opportunity: an opportunity to find an oasis of peace in the midst of a hectic world, an opportunity for silence in the midst of ceaseless noise, an opportunity for reflection in the midst of never-ending tasks of daily life. Most of all, it is an opportunity to spend time with Jesus, and to get to know him as a friend; a friend who delights simply in time spend with those he loves.

God wants to be close to us. The Eucharist is the miracle of this closeness in our lives. The goal of adoration is to help us appreciate this miracle in a deeper way, so that we enter more deeply into the wonder of the Mass, and allow it to transform our lives.

What if I want to come to Adoration, but can’t sign up right now? 

No worries! We have ensured that someone will always be with Our Lord. If you would like to come but can’t sign up, we hope you can come at your convenience and stay as long as you like! You do not need to be officially signed up in order to adore Him. 

Adore: simply look at Jesus and recognize Him as God. Thank him for His love. Offer Him your heart along with all of its burdens.*

Look: at Him who looks at you with love.

Pray: the rosary, the divine mercy chaplet or other devotions, intercede for others.

Read: the bible or other spiritual writings.

Listen: for God’s voice speaking to your heart. Rest: in God’s presence, and allow him to fill your soul with His peace.

Be: with Him, center your heart on Him, enjoy His presence.

  • The desire to spend an hour with Jesus weekly on an ongoing basis
  • Enjoy quiet prayer time
  • Faithful to schedules
  • Willing to communicate with the hourly coordinator
  • Know in your heart that you were drawn here by the Holy Spirit. Jesus is patiently waiting for you to come before Him so that He can bless you, comfort you and give you hope.

  • Come and visit Him in His Blessed Adoration Chapel and kneel before Him...Face-To-Face...and you will find peace in your life. Jesus will listen to your pleas, hopes and desires, and in His Divine Way, He will bless you with His grace, courage, strength and zeal for God's Word.

How to Begin

Full Hour: In order to maintain the use of our chapel, it is important that we have people assigned for each hour. Please consider this generous gift of your time. Jesus leaves no gift unrewarded in our lives. If an hour each week is not possible for you at this time, you can also team up with others so as to share the time, either by alternating weeks or by splitting the hour.

Sub-List: If you’re not ready to commit to a regular hour, but would like to make adoration a part of your life and are willing to help you, you can add your name to a list of subs to be contacted in case someone can’t make their hour.
