Eucharistic Adoration of Our Lord
In
less
than
a
week,
we
celebrate
Christ's total COMMITMENT for you. Could you not
commit one hour each week for Him? We want to be
adoring Him for all eternity in heaven. Why not start
now. All 168 hours need more adorers, some more
than others. Experience God's Love, Peace, Mercy. Your prayers might help save a marriage, prevent an abortion, give thanks for a life, encourage a
vocation to the priesthood/religious life. Questions/
information: contact Jim/Martha Coyne 321-6046
Vernon/Joanne Dunn 321-5896. Commit your heart
to Christ and your head and body will follow.

(diakonia). These three fundamental elements of the

closely interwoven. For more information, contact [email protected].
