Call to Adoration

If we are willing only to do what is ordinary, then we can only expect God's ordinary blessings. Only when we are willing to do the extraordinary, are we guaranteed of obtaining God"s extraordinary blessings.

Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament is absolutely the extraordinary effort that God is asking for today in order that He may bestow upon mankind His extraordinary blessings.

When we are willing to do on earth what is done in heaven, i.e., adore God perpetually, then God will create a "new heaven" and a "new earth."

(~Ricardo J. Cardinal Vidal)

For 2000 years, Catholics have believed Jesus to be truly present in the most Holy Eucharist, just as He taught His disciples in John 6. We believe that at each celebration of the Mass, bread and wine are truly transformed into the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ. Therefore, Jesus comes to be present with us not only spiritually, but physically. In the Eucharist, Jesus is just as present with us in the disguise of bread and wine as He was in the disguise of a man 2000 years ago when He walked the earth.

Therefore, Jesus is truly present (body, blood, soul, & divinity) in the most Holy Eucharist, and we can gaze upon Jesus and worship Him in His physical presence in the tabernacle. Therefore, we are blessed with the awesome opportunity to worship Jesus through Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament as He lies in repose in the Holy Tabernacle.
