A number of people miss the opportunity to adore Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament during these pandemic times.

In order to provide Eucharistic Adoration, a Tabernacle has been placed in the window of the Parish Office on the cemetery side of the property.

If you drop by to pray day or night, please remain in your car. Always be safe and courteous. We will provide this place for prayer with the Blessed Sacrament for a certain amount of time as needed.
