Adoration

Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament
Updated 1/29/2024

Sacred Heart has Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament in our chapel behind the altar. The hours the chapel is open is 7am-7pm and there is a code to enter into the chapel.

“The only begotten Son of God is to be adored in the Holy Sacrament of the Eucharist . . . including external worship. . . The Sacrament is to be publicly exposed for the people’s adoration.” (The History of Eucharistic Adoration by John A. Hardon, 1997.)

We have a monstrance that allows us to expose and repose the Eucharist by opening and closing the doors of the monstrance. This will allow for us to have adoration without need to sign up for time slots.

If you would like the code to the chapel door please email Janice Teixeira at seniorministry@sacredheartob.org or text her at 619-246-4955. This code only works 7am to 7pm.

There must absolutely never be periods when the Blessed Sacrament is exposed and there is no one present. The Monstrance must be closed when leaving the chapel and no one else is present.
