EUCHARISTIC ADORATION
As Pope Francis calls on all the faithful to “constantly contemplate the mystery of mercy,” all are encouraged to take time to visit the Blessed Sacrament, where we come face to face with Jesus Christ who is “the face of the Father’s mercy.” Pope Saint John Paul II said that by spending time in Eucharistic Adoration, we “contribute to the radical transformation of the world.”
The Adoration Chapel at St. Stephen Parish is open on Wednesday evenings from 7:00 – 12:00 midnight, and on Fridays from 8:30 a.m. – 3:15 p.m.
