ADVENT AT HOLY EUCHARIST

circlerightarrowOUR CHRISTMAS PAGE - CLICK TO ACCESS OUR Christmas Schedule and December events (Like the LIVING NATIVITY)

  • SACRAMENT OF RECONCILIATION PENANCE SERVICE IS ON SATURDAY DECEMBER 14th AT 10:00AM - Join us for a celebration of the Sacrament of Reconciliation here at Holy Eucharist on Saturday, December 14th at 10:00 am. Father Mike Schmitz often says that “confession (the Sacrament of Reconciliation) is the place of victory.” A parish reconciliation service is a great way to come back to the sacrament if you have not celebrated it in a while. We say all of the prayers together. Then, we are all invited to talk privately to one of the many priests available to include Father McClane. Just come!
  • Kids Programs - Join us as we prepare the way of the Lord! Our kids programs, Time Travelers and KidZone, are available throughout the season of Advent. Time Travelers meets on Sundays at 8:30am and 10:30am and KidZone is available at the 10:30am Mass. 
  • Eucharistic Adoration: Want to up your spiritual game this Advent? Adoration is a place to start. Adoration is available Wednesdays throughout Advent from after the 9am Mass to 4pm where it ends with Benediction.  
  • In addition to weekly Adoration, we have a Eucharistic Adoration Holy Hour on Wednesday, December 11th from 7pm to 8pm. On this evening, daily Adoration does not end at 4:00pm but instead it goes through until 8:00pm and the last hour we have a special prayer service for Advent in front of the Blessed Sacrament.  This experience will focus on Advent and will have prayer and live music.
