The celebration of the Eucharist is at the heart of Catholic life and worship. The presence of the risen Christ, through the power of the Spirit, is the source of the Church’s grace, and gives strength to carry out our mission to be the presence of Jesus in the world.

Eucharistic adoration, one of the Church’s devotional prayer forms, flows from the Mass. It provides an opportunity to deepen faith in the presence of Christ among us, and to grow in personal relationship with him. It must always be understood as linked to the Eucharist, and must keep us aware that as baptized members of Christ’s Body, we must go forth from our worship determined to make the presence of Christ known in the world through the witness of our lives.

Eucharistic Adoration is offered at St Clare once a month for 24 hours, beginning at noon on Sunday and ending with Benediction just before the Monday noon Mass.
