Adoration Ministry: Keeping Watch with Christ

Welcome to the heart of our parish’s prayer life— the Adoration Ministry at Saint Joseph Catholic Church! Our Perpetual Adoration Chapel is a sacred haven where the Blessed Sacrament is a constant source of grace, inviting all to pause, pray, and encounter Jesus in profound silence. As a ministry, we are devoted to fostering this transformative experience, ensuring that our Lord is never alone and that His presence enriches our community.

Our Mission

The Adoration Ministry coordinates and nurtures our parish’s commitment to Eucharistic Adoration. Our goal is to fill every hour of every day with dedicated Adorers, creating a seamless chain of
prayer that surrounds our community with God’s love. We are working tirelessly to restore round-the-clock Perpetual Adoration, and we invite you to join us in this holy mission!

Join Us in Prayer

Whether you’re a seasoned Adorer or new to Eucharistic Adoration, we welcome you to become part of this sacred ministry. Committing to an hour of Adoration is a beautiful way to deepen your relationship with Jesus, find peace, and intercede for our world. No hour is too small, and every moment spent with Him is a gift.

The long-awaited expansion and beautification of our chapel will officially begin on Monday, May 4th. We are truly excited to see this vision come to life and are grateful for your continued support in making it possible.

CONSTRUCTION TIMELINE

Phases 1 and 2 are expected to be completed by mid-July. Our newly renovated chapel will be ready for a beautiful unveiling in September, perfectly aligned with our Eucharistic mission. Phase 3—the installation of the new stained glass windows—will follow.

This phase still requires additional funding.

WHAT TO EXPECT DURING CONSTRUCTION +

To accommodate the work, a few temporary adjustments will be necessary: The chapel will close beginning Friday, May 1st, and is expected to reopen in late July. Adoration in the Chapel will be paused during this time.

WEEKLY ADORATION IN THE MAIN CHURCH

During construction, we will offer adoration in the main church: Monday through Friday, 9:00 AM – 12:00 PM. Following daily Mass, the Blessed Sacrament will be exposed. Reposition will take place at noon each weekday. Please note: Some construction noise may be present during these hours.

SIGN UP FOR ADORATION COVERAGE

To make this possible, we are seeking committed adorers to cover each weekday: We are especially in need of a Day Captain for each weekday (Monday–Friday). Day Captains will help ensure coverage by filling in if needed. If you are willing to serve as a Day Captain, we would be very grateful Please sign up as soon as possible.
