Adoration at the
St. Joseph Chapel
In 2020 a group of parishioners wished to create a suitable space to house the Lord and offer prayer to him in eucharistic adoration. The St. Joseph Chapel was built with monetary donations, efforts from the Gran Kermes fundraisers, and with donated labor from skilled parishioners. This building was completely paid for through these efforts. It is a testament that there is something important housed in this small but beautiful chapel. Pilgrims from neighboring counties make the trip to pray in a space that lifts their minds to God as they lift their eyes to Jesus present int he Most Holy Sacrament. Within a few weeks of the completion of the chapel, we were able to establish perpetual adoration. Every hour of every day sees adorers praying for our parish, interceding for our needs, and giving worship to God. What a treasure we have in our lovely little chapel!
