Eucharistic Adoration

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, if Jesus is truly present (body, blood, soul, & divinity) in the most Holy Eucharist, then we can gaze upon Jesus and worship Him in His physical presence. Therefore, we are blessed with the awesome opportunity to worship Jesus through Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament, or most Holy Eucharist. In Eucharistic Adoration, the Eucharistic Host (the Body of Jesus) is placed in a gold monstrance to be adored (see picture above).

Our new Eucharistic chapel on our Round Rock West site will not be ready until around March 2009.  The new office building will not open until around February  2009.  That means the church will continue to be unattended and unsupervised for most of the day until then.  We must consider the safely of the people and security of the building, and the scheduling of other activities (ie. cleaning, rehearsals, practices, etc.)

Eucharistic adoration will take place in our new church until the new Eucharistic Chapel opens according to the following schedule:
