April - Month of the Holy Eucharist

We devote special prayer and adoration to the Blessed Sacrament this month, as we continue the Easter season. We may pray before the Blessed Sacrament exposed in a monstrance in Eucharistic Adoration or before a tabernacle when our church is open for private prayer, services, and devotions. The Eucharist is the source and summit of our Catholic faith. To be admitted to the Supper of the Lord we repent, confess our sins and receive absolution, amend our lives, and present ourselves for Holy Communion in a state of grace. Our Lord Jesus Christ commanded us to eat His Body and drink His Blood, to come closer to Him and to be saved, joining Him someday in Heaven for all eternity.
