More adorers are greatly needed. If you have not committed for just ONE HOUR PER WEEK, please call Ellen Oboy @ 740-676-1908. Spread the word to your friends and neighbors. The goal established for us by missionary Father Lawrence Villone, in a parish our size, was two adorers per hour. Yet we have several hours with NO adorers, and many hours with only one adorer. YOU ARE NEEDED! JESUS WANTS EUCHARISTIC ADORATION -- OUR HOLY FATHER ASKS FOR IT!
"This Perpetual Adoration truly is a work of grace. By means of Perpetual Adoration of Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament, families, parishes, and neighborhoods will grow in love of God and one another and will help to bring peace on earth" (Bl. Mother Teresa of Calcutta) "May Thy kingdom come! May it spread far and wide, may it gain prestige, may it progress in every way! May the Lord be known and loved by those who neither know or love Him! May everyone complete in himself the work of the Incarnation and of the Redemption!" (New Year Wishes to Our Eucharistic Lord, excerpt from St. Peter Julian Eymard)********************
Get to know our Lord better. Study His life, His sacrifices, and His virtues in the Most Blessed Sacrament. Study His love. Instead of always remaining within ourselves, let us go up to Him; it is all very well to see ourselves in Him, but to see Him in us is better. Instead of attending to yourself, attend to our Lord and make Him grow in you. Think of Him, study Him in Himself; penetrate into Him. You will find the food of your life in Him; for He is great and infinite. That is the broad and royal road to holiness and the way to the ennobling of our lives. Let us then love Him for our own sakes. Let us love Him for those who do not love Him, for our relatives and friends. Let us pay our family's debit and our country's. That is what all the saints do; they thus imitate our Lord Who loves His Father for all men and becomes surety for the whole world. May our Lord, the gentle Savior Who loves us so much, become at long last the King, the Master, and the Spouse of our soul!
