Calling All Sinners . . .

Take advantage of this historical time of mercy!

What better way to seek and ask for Our Lord’s divine mercy than through an hour of Eucharistic Adoration. Please prayerfully consider signing up for an hour of Adoration during the times below for the months of July, August, and September. No obligation to continue after September.
