🕊️ Adorers of the Blessed Sacrament Sacred Time in the Presence of Christ

At Holy Rosary Burlington, a quiet yet powerful ministry blooms each month through the commitment of the Adorers of the Blessed Sacrament. Rooted in deep reverence for the Eucharist, these parishioners dedicate time for intimate prayer and reflection before the Blessed Sacrament on the First Friday of every month.

🌿 What It Means to Be an Adorer

To be an Adorer is to say “yes” to sacred stillness. These faithful volunteers:

• Sit in contemplative prayer in the church during exposition of the Blessed Sacrament.
• Offer petitions for personal intentions, vocations, their families, the parish, the Diocese, and the world.
• Celebrate the real presence of Christ in the Eucharist through adoration and quiet reflection.
• Embrace the call to spiritual renewal, one hour at a time.

Occasional support and guidance are available to enrich one’s prayer experience—whether you’re seasoned in devotion or just beginning your journey.

🗓 When & Where

• Date: First Friday of every month
• Time: 8:30 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.
• Location: Holy Rosary Burlington Church

🙌 Who Can Join?
