Eucharistic Adoration

Without silence, God disappears in the noise. And this noise becomes all the more obsessive because God is absent.
Unless the world rediscovers silence, it is lost. The earth then rushes into nothingness.

Cardinal Sarah

Our Lady of Mercy has Eucharistic Adoration Monday through Friday from 8:30AM to 10PM in the Eucharistic Adoration Chapel.
On Wednesdays during the 12PM Mass, there will be no Eucharistic Adoration, it will resume immediately after the Mass. 
During MAGNIFY typically at the last Wednesday of the month from 7PM to 8:30PM, Adoration will be inside the church accompanied with praise and worship.

Your Role as an Adorer

An Adorer at Our Lady of Mercy Catholic Church represents our parish community in adoration and prayer before the Blessed Sacrament. Thus, it is not only a time to pray for yourself and your own family and friends but it is also a time to pray for the entire parish family, which provides great consolation to the parish by knowing that someone is praying for them continuously.

Several Things to Keep in Mind While Adoring Jesus at the Eucharistic Adoration Chapel:

• Silent Adoration Chapel. This will be a silent space.  Echoing Cardinal Robert Sarah’s words, “Christ lived for thirty years in silence. Then, during His public life, He withdrew to the desert to listen to and speak with His Father. The world vitally needs those who go off into the desert because God speaks in silence.”
  Thank you for being what the world vitally needs as “those who go off into the desert” when you spend time with Jesus at the chapel.
• Respecting Sacred Spaces. Please refrain from touching the statues or placing items on them or the wooden ledge (items such as flower arrangements, rosaries, mementos, gifts, etc.).
• Please Sign-In Every Time You Visit Jesus. Familiarize yourself with the sign-in process by watching the tutorial video. Father Michael emphasizes the importance of signing in for all committed adorers and visitors, as it helps us maintain a record of attendance and ensure a smooth operation of the chapel, for we cannot leave Jesus alone in the chapel. A separate tutorial video is sent to adorers who have made a weekly commitment to adore Jesus.
• Adoration Hours. Join us Monday through Friday, following the 8am Mass until 10pm, with exceptions on Wednesdays during the 12pm Mass, adoration resumes immediately after the 12pm Mass.  On Wednesday evenings during MAGNIFY from 7pm to 8:30pm, adoration will take place inside the church.

Prayer Intentions

We encourage each adorer to keep these intentions in mind:

1. The material and spiritual welfare of the universal Church; and in particular, those of the parishioners of Our Lady of Mercy.
2. Vocations to the priesthood and religious life.
3. The sanctity of all life, from conception to natural end.
4. Your own personal intentions.

If you cannot commit to a weekly Holy Hour, please consider joining our Adoration Ministry Sub team and you can help us fill a weekly Adorer’s spot when he or she cannot attend.
