Come and See & Give Thanks
​Brothers and Sisters, the invitation of Philip to Nathaniel, “Come and See” in John’s Gospel brought Nathaniel face-to-face with Jesus. This invitation is given to us as well to come face-to-face with Our Lord in adoration of Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament. 

We have particular reason to Come and See at this time and to do so in Thanksgiving because we have entirely paid off our parish debt!  We pondered what could top our last celebration complete with sparkling grape juice and fireworks.  Certainly to Come, See and Give Thanks to Jesus in the Eucharist is the greatest way we can celebrate.  It is only right that we should give Him the credit due in thanksgiving.
​
We will Come, See & Give Thanks in a particular way through the 40 Hours Devotion March 16th-18th.  This devotion comes to us by way of St. Philip Neri in Rome in 1548.  It is a 40 hour-period of Eucharistic Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament in Solemn Exposition.  The number 40 is important in our faith as in the 40 days of the flood, 40 years the Israelites wandered in the desert, and 40 hours from Christ’s death to His resurrection.  Individuals come to the church to spend any amount of time with Our Lord in prayer during these 40 hours.  As with any time of adoration, individuals can take time to pray the Rosary, the Stations of the Cross, the Divine Mercy Chaplet, read Sacred Scripture or spiritual reading.  Most simply and beautifully though one can humbly sit in silence in the presence of Jesus, much like one might quietly sit in the presence of a spouse, family member or a good friend.  Being present and listening to our Lord in the silence is a great blessing that Eucharistic adoration affords.  Whether you are someone who regularly takes part in our adoration chapel or have never been before, we invite you to come to the church at any time during the scheduled devotion to spend some time with Jesus.  You are welcome to strengthen your commitment by signing up in the narthex of church. 
Come, See and Give Thanks for the blessing of the elimination of our debt, but also for any of the beautiful intentions listed on the reverse of this flier.  Our
normally-scheduled adorers will be in the church rather than in the chapel
during the devotion.  Also, over the evening and night hours only the back
parking lot entrance of the church will be open and there will be a male
present for any safety concerns.  Please do come to church to join us for the
greatest way we can celebrate in Thanksgiving to God for our debt being
eliminated and for all of our many blessings.  Come and See what
adoration of the Blessed Sacrament is all about during these
40 Hours of Thanksgiving.
