Perpetual Adoration
Have you ever thought of spending an hour of Eucharistic Adoration? God is calling you by name.
Perpetual Adoration is a Eucharistic devotion whereby members of our Parish would unite in committing to one hour of adorationbefore the Most Blessed Sacrament, both during the day and throughout the night, seven days a week. Parishioners are welcome to sign up for this special prayer opportunity. For more information or to sign up for an hour contact Connie at mcclurec@svdpomaha.com or Deacon Jay at jayreilly@catholicexchange.com.
Why have Perpetual Adoration in our Parish?
Eucharistic Adoration is an expression of our love for Jesus,
who loves us so much that He never wants to leave us and so
stays with us day and night in the Blessed Sacrament.
There are one hundred and sixty eight hours in a week.
Technically, all tht is needed is one hundred and sixty-eight
people to make one holy hour on a weekly basis so that these
hours can be coordinated in such a way that all hours are covered.
