The Blessed Sacrament is NEVER to be left alone under any circumstances. Do not leave the chapel with no one present except in a very serious emergency and once others have been called.
Sign-in Sheet is located at the entrance to the chapel. Please sign in at the start of your shift. That way, the person whom you are relieving will know you are present.
If you are a scheduled Adorer and cannot make your time, please find a sub by selecting "Need a Sub?" here or the button below.
If you are the only person in the chapel, please wait until the next Adorer arrives. If you must leave unexpectedly, you may call the parish office during normal business hours (Mon-Fri, 8 a.m. - 5 p.m.) Outside office hours, you will need to call a friend or family member to take your place before you can leave.
Maintain Reverent, Prayerful Silence. Music, singing, and vocal prayer are wonderful ways of adoring Jesus. However, please refrain if others are present and respect their silence. Or ask if it is okay.
Only clergy should go up to the altar. Do not go up and touch the altar or the monstrance. Please venerate Our Lord from a short distance. During urgent situations only, properly trained laity can repose but not perform Benediction.
Please do not use cell phones. If cell phones must remain on, please set to silent/vibrate mode.
Attire and decorum should be appropriate for solemn occasions such as at Mass. No food or drinks. Water bottles are okay.
Reading Materials. It is wonderful to do spiritual reading, either from Sacred Scripture, the Liturgy of the Hours, publications like Magnificat, the Catechism, Church documents, or spiritual reading from Catholic authors. We have a small "mini-library" of spiritual reading materials in the chapel. You may take these home but please return them when finished, for others to enjoy.
