Will you watch one hour with Me?
ADORERS NEEDED!
Christ the Good Shepherd is open during the day for anyone wishing to spend time with Our Lord in the Eucharist. Drop in anytime between 8 AM and 9 PM to pray and meditate--or better still, consider signing up for a regular time slot in the parish office! The graces associated with this practice are incalculable. Should there be sufficient long-term interest demonstrated by people willing to sign up for a regular hour or two, we may eventually be able to have Exposition, in which Our Lord is exposed in the monstrance, regularly at our parish. Pray that this may be so!
