Adoration: The Answer t o Deepening your Relationship With Christ
If you have a reall
y good friend, or if you are married, then you know what it takes to be in a relationship with someone. Two of the most important things you can do to deepen your friendship is to spend time together, and to talk with each other frequently.
The best friend and the lover of our souls is Jesus Christ. Yet many of us suffer from a feeling that we don’t really know who Jesus is, or we don’t feel like we have a personal relationship with Him. Jesus is more like a figure from a history book to us, or some mysterious God-man who we know we have obligations to, yet we don’t really feel anything in our hearts towards Him.
Eucharistic Adoration Schedule

Lectors
Ministers of the Word proclaim the word of the Lord to the congregation, drawing the assembly more deeply into the mystery being celebrated. They prepare the readings in advance. They approach the ambo with dignity and reverence, and proclaim the readings in a strong, clear voice. Ushers
Ushers are ministers of hospitality who help to create a friendly and welcoming atmosphere when others come to worship. They welcome the people who assemble to worship by greeting them as they enter the church. Ushers also distribute hymnals and bulletins, and collect the offering from the community. AltAr Servers
The primary role of the altar server is to assist the priest in the celebration of the liturgy during Mass. This is done through specific actions and by setting an example to the congregation by actively participating in the liturgy through their actions, singing of hymns, and responses with the people.
