"The greatest love story of all time is contained in a tiny white Host."

- Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen

Please prayerfully consider signing up to spend an hour with our Lord in adoration.

Perpetual Eucharistic Adoration is continuous prayer before Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament. It is an expression of our love for Jesus. The Host, the Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of Jesus is placed in a Monstrance and honored with the worship of adoration.  Adorers make a commitment to spend an hour before the exposed consecrated Eucharist. Adoration is continuous seven days a week, twenty-four hours a day except for a brief period at the end of lent, termed, Triduum, when the Eucharist is reposed. Before the Pandemic, St. Stephen's adoration chapel was never alone as there was always scheduled adorers present 24 hours a day around the clock!
  

St. Stephen's will resume adoration all day in the church sanctuary every Monday through Friday beginning after the 7am mass to 9pm. All are welcome to visit and pray anytime and for as long as you want throughout the day.
 
Please complete the adoration sign up form below if you are interested in committing to a dedicated holy hour and select which time slots and days you can spend with the Lord.

The time you spend with the Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament is the best time you will spend on earth. Each moment that you spend with Jesus will deepen your union with Him and make your soul everlastingly more glorious and beautiful in heaven, and will help bring about everlasting peace on earth. 
- Saint Teresa of Calcutta
