Spiritual Growth
Below are just some of the ways to grow spiritually at St. John the Baptist Parish.
Eucharistic Adoration
Adoration of the Most Blessed Sacrament at St. John the Baptist has been ongoing for 26 years. This beautiful devotion began on September 5, 1986.
The Blessed Sacrament is exposed in the monstrance every Friday morning following the 8:00 am Mass until 11:30 am.
On the first Friday of every month, there is 24-hour Adoration in the Church, from 8:00 am Friday until 8:00 am Mass on Saturday.
All parishioners and visitors are invited to come pray with us during these hours. Many thanks to those who regularly come to spend an hour with our Lord and to all who make this devotion so successful.
