Eucharistic Adoration A representative from the Parish EUCHARISTIC ADORATION Group, will speak to us today about silent adoration before the Blessed Sacrament and how newcomers can participate. WEEKLY EUCHARISTIC ADORATION has been part of our parish life in Howth since 2011. Participants spend a set hour each week in silent adoration. Other than starting and finishing on the hour and observing a prayerful silence, there is no structure. Participants pray, meditate, read Scripture or spiritual books or any combination of these as they choose. It is a time to quietly unwind in Our Lord’s presence away from the busyness of life and open our hearts to him in whatever way we find natural.
