You are all invited to Family Adoration! Kids, parents and caregivers are encouraged to visit Jesus for 5 minutes or more! All are welcome! What is Adoration? Adoration is spending quiet, personal time with Jesus, who is truly present in the Eucharist (the Blessed Sacrament) displayed in a special golden stand called a monstrance. What can you do at Adoration? Adoration is just like visiting your best friend. Greet Jesus, by genuflecting, then sit or kneel. You can pray silently, read the bible or prayer book, pray the rosary with the group or “just be” with Jesus. Why should kids come to Adoration? Builds a Personal Relationship: It helps children realize that Jesus is real and present, transforming Him from a figure in a storybook to a friend they can visit. Fosters Belief in the Real Presence: Regular adoration helps children understand that the host is truly Jesus, strengthening their faith in the Eucharist. Learn to Pray in Silence: It offers a rare, quiet space for children to listen to God and develop a personal prayer life. Model Reverence: Children learn how to act in church—kneeling, bowing, and sitting in quiet, respectful adoration. Welcoming God's Love: Jesus welcomes children just as they are—wiggles, noises, and all—offering them a place to feel His love, joy, and peace.
