My son and I stopped by to visit Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament today and were happy to see that Fr. Romanowski has begun Perpetual Adoration at St. Mary's. What a true privilege it is to have Perpetual Adoration of Our Lord. May God the Father have mercy on any bishop who is nonsensical enough to close a church--no matter the size--committed enough to have Perpetual Adoration of Our Eucharistic Lord. We will beg Jesus to protect our parish and others.

Don't get me wrong, St. Mary's continues to be packed at Sunday masses, but what difference does it make if there are thousands of people in attendance at a mass if those in attendance have no love or devotion to God? Any parish capable of the kind of Adoration that goes on at St. Mary's--three and four days a week for twelve consecutive years--is a special place.

How unfortunate it is that Bishop Galante believes social services are what constitute "vibrancy" when what we have at St. Mary's (and other parishes he has chosen to persecute) is true Christian community, authentic devotion to the Blessed Trinity, and genuine love for the Mother of God, Mary Most Holy, Tabernacle of the Infant Jesus. Please beg Our Heavenly Queen for her intercession for Bishop Galante, that he may be totally converted. All things are possible with God and Our Lady is our greatest advocate with Him!

I snapped a few pictures while visiting. Enjoy the slideshow.
