Instructions

1

Find a local Catholic Church that holds a weekly Holy Hour or has scheduled Eucharistic Adoration with Exposition of the Blessed Sacrament. If the Catholic Church near you has neither, ask the pastor when the church is open for the faithful to make a visit or pray by oneself. Many churches are promoting Eucharistic Adoration for faithful Catholics. Eucharistic Adoration draws devotees closer to Christ and to their Faith.
2

Make a commitment. If your church has a sign-up for Eucharistic Adoration, choose a time slot and schedule yourself to be there each week for an hour at the same day and time. Many congregations have a goal of perpetual Eucharistic Adoration. With your commitment, this could become a reality at your local parish.
3

Meditate during your Holy Hour. Eucharistic Adoration is a time to be quiet, a time for spirituality and a way to become closer to Christ. Find something specific for your meditation-for example, the wounds of Christ, the joys of Mary, heaven, God's love.
4

Learn and practice Lectio Divina during your Eucharistic Adoration holy hour. Lectio Divina is a combination of prayer, reading and mediation in which the participant prays a passage of the Bible, pondering the words and offering one's prayers and thoughts to God.
5

Offer Christ your petitions and thanksgivings during Eucharistic Adoration. Thank Him for your blessings, pray for the well-being of your family and friends, and rest in His Presence. While in the presence of Jesus during Eucharistic Adoration, acknowledge and honor His goodness.
