Dear Friends in Jesus and Mary,

Pope Saint John Paul -2 was an "Apostle of the Holy Eucharist". He personally championed the cause of Perpetual Eucharistic Adoration.

He was a pioneer of Perpetual Eucharistic Adoration in more ways than one.

In my humble opinion, there will never be a Pope like Saint John Paul - 2 or like Pope John Paul - the Great as I like to call him.

He almost moved "Heaven and Earth" to spread the message of Perpetual Eucharistic Adoration.

Make sure you cross yourself from left to right, instead of right to left, and kneel forward with you head down before you rise, because those rituals secure your salvation and are really what God cares about. < sarcasm />

Just completed 42 hours of Eucharistic adoration yesterday at 4 a.m. where I ended this year's Lenten journey with a rosary for Free Republic's Religion Forum (and its contributors). This Lent was a little different from previous years, however, in that several of these hours were spent nocturnally and also grouped together.

Visiting Jesus at night:
The prayer of adoration at night
has the power and efficacy of that prayer made with fasting
that I recommended to My apostles
as the means of expelling demons
from the souls whom they torture and oppress. -from Fr. Mark Kirby
To witness repeatedly the "changing of the guard" (when the scheduled adorers filter in) at 1 a.m., 2 a.m., 3 a.m., fills one's heart with the type of joy only Christ can bring. So while you're sharing important time with Our Lord in beautiful silence, you're also sitting, kneeling, and praying, with people who love Jesus so much, they're willing to take themselves from their beds and their homes, at night, to Christ Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament, week after week after week, year after year.

These soldiers of Christ (and the daytime ones too!) are no doubt helping to save our towns (through "His strength and His power"), and I encourage everyone (who is not already doing so) to stop by an adoration chapel if even for only a few minutes, to spend time with Our Perfect Jesus.

Thank you for this sweet article.

JPII, the Great, please pray for all to seek Him in adoration.
