This is it—the final week of our Adoration campaign, and the finish line is well within sight! We are on a mission to bring 70 new committed adorers into a weekly presence with our Lord, and right now - we are just 8 people away from hitting that goal.
If you’ve been waiting for a sign from the Lord to take this step, this is your moment! Committing to a regular hour of Adoration isn’t just a scheduling choice; it’s a life-changing decision to sit at the feet of Jesus, find true peace amidst the chaos, and let Him transform your heart.

As a special thank you for making this powerful commitment during this final push, everyone who signs up will receive a beautiful, monstrance pin to wear as a reminder of your sacred hour with Him.
For a long time, Joe Cioffi was just going through the motions as a "fake Catholic," living a lukewarm faith...until he stepped into Eucharistic Adoration and everything changed. Sitting in the raw silence before the Blessed Sacrament, the masks fell away as the Holy Spirit took his lukewarmness and kindled a raging fire within him—a deep desire to be a better man and a true disciple. Though it was a long, challenging road of surrender, consistent time in adoration completely transformed his life; he stopped following his own ambition and began seeking God’s will in every single decision. Looking at the Eucharist, Joe was overwhelmed by the reality of Christ’s presence, realizing that he was profoundly blessed, deeply loved, and held by the Savior. Today, his life is defined by a radical gratitude, anchored entirely by the truth that Christ is truly present to us in the Eucharist, ready to transform anyone willing to sit in the fire of His love in adoration.
It has been a profound joy to witness how many of our parishioners have thrown open their hearts during this Eucharistic Adoration campaign, dedicating themselves to a season of deep personal devotion. Over the last 33 days, many in our community have been intentionally preparing their souls using Matthew Kelly’s 33 Days to Eucharistic Glory, drawing closer to the mystery of Christ's love in the Eucharist. This beautiful spiritual journey will culminate this weekend on the Feast of Corpus Christi, where our parish will gather to pray this consecration during the Masses for all those who have been preparing. In that same sacred moment, we will also stand together as a community to renew our parish consecration made last September, uniting us as the Body of Christ into a single, powerful offering of love, thanksgiving, and total surrender to Jesus truly present in the Holy Eucharist.
A few free copies will be available in the vestibule for those that would like to start their own consecration.
If you have not yet made this journey - it’s never too late to take that step!

As we mark the beautiful feast of Corpus Christi, our parish reaches the joyful culmination of our Eucharistic Adoration Campaign. After months of prayer, deepened devotion, and growing closer to Our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament, it is time to take our faith into the streets! Let us proclaim the love of His Eucharistic Heart to the world, sharing the graces He has given us through the quiet hours spent with Him in adoration. In true unity as the Body of Christ in our Archdiocese, you are invited to join the Eucharistic Procession in Portland, led by our shepherd, Archbishop Alexander Sample.
Archbishop Sample has asked that we pray this novena every day leading up to the consecration of the Archdiocese this Sunday, June 7.
You can pick up a prayer card at the help desk in the vestibule at St. Alice or in the chapel.
