Full-day of Adoration, Wednesday February 5th
Beginning on Wednesday, February 5th, 2025, St. Edward’s Parish will have all-day adoration of the Blessed Sacrament once per month. Adoration will begin following the 10am Mass and continue until 8pm, with Benediction at 7:45pm. During this time the church will remain open for visitation and prayer. To make this work, we need at least two volunteers to be present for each hour throughout the day. A sign-up sheet will be available at the back of the church if you wish to sign up for an hour. You may contact Rita Bruce at (709) 770-1319 if you have questions. Even if you do not sign up, you are free to come anytime during the day to pray. We hope to continue this adoration on the first Wednesday of every month. Further announcements will be posted in the bulletin.
