Eucharistic Adoration and Benediction, although connected, are two different things. In my church we have Perpetual Adoration set up in a separate chapel. Here parishioners come 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to pray before the our Eucharistic Lord exposed in a monstrance upon an altar. Being Perpetual Adoration there is never Benediction, i.e. a blessing with the Host. Once a week in the main church there is Rosary and Benediction at which the Benediction, or blessing, is given after an half-hour of adoration.

We have Eucharistic Adoration every Tuesday starting after morning masses until concluded with a Benediction at 6:45 p.m. and a perpetual novena to Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal thereafter.
