.ADORATION OF THE BLESSED SACRAMENT

"I paid a visit to Jesus today,

where I could kneel, adore and pray.

There I found such joy and great peace,

wanting these feelings never to cease.

God's loving invitation is extended today,

to come visit, kneel, adore and pray.

Every Thursday, from 8:30 till Noon.

Please come and visit Jesus very soon"(I.C.)

We are very fortunate to have Adoration of the Most Blessed Sacrament every Thursday morning.  It is a wonderful opportunity to visit with Jesus in a most personal way.

At the present time there are individuals who have volunteered to stay each half hour with the Blessed Sacrament, but we are in need of others. If you cannot volunteer on a weekly basis as this time, please stop in from 8:30 to noon so that our volunteers do not sit alone. In this month's "The Word Among Us" there are four excellent articles on why we have adoration. The booklets are at all exits of the church, next to the bulletins. Please take one. You can contact Rita at 732-469-2874 if you wish to volunteer.

 

 

Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament

During the summer months, our parishioners who volunteered to be with the Blessed Sacrament wish to take a week or two for vacation.  Please consider placing your name on our substitute list a half hour on some Thursdays.  Call Rita at 732-469-2874 for further information.

 

The people in the golf Coast of Mississippi send much thanks in there time of need to the  parish community of Our Lady of Mercy for the donation of socks they received.
