Adoration

Eucharistic Adoration is a Catholic devotion in which the faithful spend time praying before Jesus Christ, truly present—Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity—in the Blessed Sacrament (the consecrated Host).

Typically, during formal adoration, the Host is exposed in a decorative vessel called a monstrance on the altar for public veneration. Informally, one can visit and pray before the tabernacle, where the Eucharist is reserved.

Inside a church with a congregation seated in pews, a priest at the altar, crucifix above, stained glass windows, and religious images on the walls.

St. Thomas Aquinas

St. Thomas Aquinas Catholic Parish offers perpetual Eucharistic Adoration 24 hours a day, every day, in its dedicated St. Julienne of Liege Chapel, allowing visitors to pray before the Blessed Sacrament at any time.
