Saturday, October 8 after the 4:30PM Mass.  Spending time in the presence of Christ in the Eucharist provides immeasurable graces for families!  Family Eucharistic Adoration provides time for you and your children, no matter their age, to spend time in the presence of our Lord in the Eucharist. We invite you to join us as we pray together on the 2nd Saturday of each month following the 4:30PM Mass. Adoration Time: 1 hour.  Childcare will be provided in St. Clare Room. A Potluck supper will follow in McCarthy Hall. While this is "family friendly," it is certainly open to all!
