First Friday Adoration will take place in church on Friday, September 4, 2026. Adoration will begin with Exposition after the 8:00 am school mass, continue throughout the day, and close with Benediction at 7:00 pm.

Adoration is an invitation to spend time with Jesus, truly present, in the Most Blessed Sacrament. There is so much noise and distraction in the world; Adoration allows us to be in silence with the Lord to hear His voice. Please consider coming to church for even a short period of time.

If you are able to sit with the Lord longer, we are always in need of adorers who will commit to an hour of time to ensure that Jesus is never left alone while exposed in the monstrance. For questions or to commit to an hour, please contact Jean Fiala at 314/809-7909 or Carol Craft at 314/842-2626.
