Pray as though everything depended on God. Work as though everything depended on you.
- St. Augustine

We are a people of prayer. We hope you will join us in prayer. You will find information about our communal prayer on this page. If you are looking for more information on how we pray, please visit Pray with Us.

Adoration

Adoration in person will resume after the Covid-19 restrictions are lifted and we will put up a schedule here.

The Catechism of the Catholic Church tells us that, “Adoration is the first attitude of man acknowledging that he is a creature before his Creator. It exalts the greatness of the Lord who made us and the almighty power of the Savior who sets us free from evil. Adoration is homage of the spirit to the “King of Glory,”respectful silence in the presence of the “ever greater” God. Adoration of the thrice-holy and sovereign God of love blends with humility and gives assurance to our supplications.” (CCC 2628)

When you arrive for Adoration, you should always genuflect to show your respect for the Lord in the Host. It is most appropriate to remain silent at Adoration whether in the church or in the chapel. You are in the presence of God.

You may sit, stand, kneel or even lay on the floor before the Blessed Sacrament. Do what is comfortable for you. You don’t have to do anything else, you can simply sit in the presence of Jesus. Take the time to be with Him. If you are alone in the chapel, you can pray or sing aloud.

Father Keith livestreams Adoration each weekday morning.

Here’s a post about Adoration that you might enjoy.

Good friends find pleasure in one another’s company. Let us know pleasure in the company of our best Friend, a Friend who can do everything for us, a friend who loves us beyond measure. Here in the Blessed Sacrament we can talk to him straight from the heart.
- St Alphonsus de Liguori

Rosary

Many of our churches have organized times when members of a Rosary Prayer Group meet and pray the Rosary together.

We are compiling a schedule of regular Rosary groups and will update this page with the list once we are able to gather again in prayer.
Fr. Keith leads the Rosary daily at 3 pm on our YouTube Channel.

Fr. Keith has also challenged us with the “Hail Mary Project“, a prayer project to pray 1,000,000 Hail Marys as a Parish.  To date we have prayed nearly 2,000,000 Hail Marys for the intention to end the Covid-19 pandemic.

Prayer Teams

If you are in need of prayer, our Prayer Teams are ready to pray. If you are a prayer warrior we invite you to be part of a Prayer Team.

Facebook Prayer Group

We have a prayer group on Facebook where you can send your prayer requests. You can also join the prayer group to pray for others. The members pray for one another’s intentions as part of their daily prayer and you don’t have to go anywhere. It’s a wonderful way to contribute spiritually and to grow spiritually even if you can’t get out to an in-person prayer group.

Our Lady has never refused me a grace through the recitation of the rosary.
- St. Padre Pio
