The Need for Eucharistic Renewal

03-25-2018Adoration

Pope Paul VI declared that there would be no renewal in the Church without a fervent Eucharistic renewal. St. John Paul II has said: “The Church and the world have a great need of Eucharistic adoration. Jesus awaits us in this sacrament of love. Let us be generous with our time in going to meet Him in adoration… May our adoration never cease.”

Jesus is waiting for you

03-18-2018Adoration

"Jesus is waiting for you in the chapel. Go and find him when your strength and patience are giving out, when you feel lonely and helpless. Say to him: "You know well what is happening, my dear Jesus. I have only you.' Come to my aid… And then go your way. Don't worry about knowing how you are going to manage. It is enough to have told our good Lord. He has an excellent memory."

— St. Jeanne Jugan
