ADORATION *
Every Thursday after the 7:00 AM Mass until 5:30 PM in the Emmanuel Chapel. Benediction 5:20 PM - 5:30 PM.
Through this practice, we are invited to spend time alone with God in His real, physical form, and to bring to Jesus all our cares, concerns, prayers, hopes, and thoughts. We set aside a special time, a respite from our hectic modern lives, to create a personal space in which to meet our God.
Biblical reason for wanting to spend One Hour with Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament:“I only wish to thank God that (Perpetual Eucharistic) adoration has been reborn everywhere in the Church!” (Pope Benedict XVI)
This week, the Sanctuary Lamps are burning for:Blessed Sacrament Chapel †Lloyd L.K. & Mercedes M. Flores
†LaMarcus James R. Spencer
Emmanuel Chapel Katelyn McCoy-Wheatley & her unborn child
* Adorers are needed to sit before the Blessed Sacrament and adore Jesus on Thursdays from 8:00 AM - 5:30 PM. Call the Parish Office at (361) 883.4213 -

Prayers after Communion
The Anima Christi
Soul of Christ, sanctify me
Body of Christ, save me
Blood of Christ, inebriate me
Water from Christ's side, wash me
Passion of Christ, strengthen me
O good Jesus, hear me
Within Thy wounds hide me
Suffer me not to be separated from Thee
From the malicious enemy defend me
In the hour of my death call me
And bid me come unto Thee
That I may praise Thee with Thy saints
and with Thy angels
Forever and ever
Amen
"I love You, O my God, and my only desire is to love You until the last breath of my life. I love You, O my infinitely lovable God, and I would rather die loving You, than live without loving You. I love You, Lord and the only grace I ask is to love You eternally....My God, if my tongue cannot say in every moment that I love You, I want my heart to repeat it to You as often as I draw breath."
- Saint John Vianney.
Prayer of St. Pio of Pietrelcina after Holy Communion
Stay with me, Lord, for it is necessary to have
You present so that I do not forget You.
You know how easily I abandon You.Stay with me, Lord, because I am weak
and I need Your strength,
that I may not fall so often.Stay with me, Lord, for You are my life,
and without You, I am without fervor.Stay with me, Lord, for You are my light,
and without You, I am in darkness.Stay with me, Lord, to show me Your will.
Stay with me, Lord, so that I hear Your voice
and follow You.Stay with me, Lord, for I desire to love You
very much, and always be in Your company.Stay with me, Lord, if You wish me to be faithful to You.
Stay with me, Lord, for as poor as my soul is,
I want it to be a place of consolation for You, a nest of love.Stay with me, Jesus, for it is getting late and the day is coming to a close, and life passes;
death, judgment, eternity approaches. It is necessary to renew my strength,
so that I will not stop along the way and for that, I need You.
It is getting late and death approaches,
I fear the darkness, the temptations, the dryness, the cross, the sorrows.
O how I need You, my Jesus, in this night of exile!Stay with me tonight, Jesus, in life with all its dangers. I need You.
Let me recognize You as Your disciples did at the breaking of the bread,
so that the Eucharistic Communion be the Light which disperses the darkness,
the force which sustains me, the unique joy of my heart.Stay with me, Lord, because at the hour of my death, I want to remain united to You,
if not by communion, at least by grace and love.Stay with me, Jesus, I do not ask for divine consolation, because I do not merit it,
but the gift of Your Presence, oh yes, I ask this of You!Stay with me, Lord, for it is You alone I look for, Your Love, Your Grace, Your Will, Your Heart,
Your Spirit, because I love You and ask no other reward but to love You more and more.With a firm love, I will love You with all my heart while on earth
and continue to love You perfectly during all eternity. Amen.
