“God dwells in our midst, in the Blessed Sacrament of the altar.”
St. Maximilian Kolbe

We are excited to share that we are offering TWO special Holy Hours per month to ensure that Adoration is accessible to everyone!
- Sensory-Friendly Holy Hour (First Saturday of the month from 3:00 to 4:15 p.m. in the Sanctuary): a Holy Hour for children and adults with special needs: Down Syndrome, Autism, Dementia, etc. with low lighting, no incense, and safety to move around as needed.
- Baby & Tot Holy Hour (Third Wednesday of the month from 10:00 to 11:00 a.m. in the Eucharistic Chapel): a Holy Hour for parents and their littles and spend time with Jesus in a safe and judgement-free environment.
- PLEASE NOTE: These special Holy Hours are thoughtfully designed to serve the needs of families with young children and individuals who benefit from a sensory-friendly environment. The atmosphere during these times is welcoming, gentle, and flexible—intended to support prayer through movement, soft sounds, and a more relaxed setting. While the Blessed Sacrament will be exposed for adoration, these Holy Hours will not follow the traditional format of extended silence. If you are seeking a quiet, contemplative time of prayer, we invite you to join us during one of our other Adoration times, which may better suit that experience.
