Feedback from your vicariate/deanery, please.

Here in my vicariate we have one out of six churches with Perpetual Eucharistic Adoration. Our mission speaker during Lent will be on this subject too!

Would YOU sign up for one hour every week?

I would sign up. We don't have Perpetual Adoration, at least not yet. But after years of liberal, new agey leadership, some of the replacement Priests have brought it back. There are some 'stipulations', like at first the Rosary was banned, whether by individuals or outside of the Adoration time. So far it's one day a week and certain 'special' occasions in local parishes, but that's a great start considering just 2 or 3 yrs ago it was actually renounced by some in the clergy and leadership. And now that it's back, it does seem well received.

We were told that instead of (not even in addition to) spending an hour a week kneeling in the church, we should be out at the food bank volunteering or at the Ecumenical prayer service. Yes, this from a priest in his homily. His ecumenical 'services', never held in the church because local protestant Ministers objected, were so successful that several long time Catholic families left altogether. I'm in the Erie diocese in PA.

To find Eucharistic Adoration near you (or on a pilgrimage).

I am signed up. It's important to my prayerlife, too.
