is an indescribable feeling-you

Thanks for the wonderful article.

I was at Auriesville Shrine of Martyrs 2 weeks ago for Adoration and witnessed the monstrance vibrating for about 10 seconds.

I go there every Wednesday since they have Adoration after 4 pm Mass to 7PM

I can not even imagine my life without Adoration because of the many prayers that have been answered and the peace I have received through persecutions and sufferings

The best, the surest , and the most effective way of establishing everlasting peace on the face of the earth is through the great power of perpetual adoration of the Blessed Sacrament." -- Pope John Paul II

"Could you not watch one hour?" -- Mark 14:37

I am happy to testify that many young people are discovering the beauty of adoration, whether personal or in community. I invite priests to encourage youth groups in this, but also to accompany them to ensure that the forms of adoration are appropriate and dignified, with sufficient times for silence and listening to the word of God. In life today, which is often noisy and scattered, it is more important than ever to recover the capacity for interior silence and recollection: Eucharistic adoration permits one to do this not only within one's "I" but rather in the company of that "You" full of love who is Jesus Christ, "the God who is near us."
