Nine Days of Prayer, One Holy Night of Grace
Feast of Our Lady of the Most Blessed Sacrament
For nine days, the parish community of Saint Mary joined in heartfelt prayer, lifting our intentions to heaven through the intercession of Our Lady of the Most Blessed Sacrament. Each evening of the novena brought us closer—to Mary, to one another, and most especially, to Jesus in the Eucharist.
A Sacred Culmination
On her beautiful feast day, we gathered to offer our final novena and to celebrate the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. The chapel was filled with reverence and devotion as we honored Our Lady, asking her to lead us ever more deeply into the mystery of her Son’s Real Presence.
Adding to the grace of the evening, the faithful had the rare privilege to venerate the relic of Saint Peter Julian Eymard, known as the Apostle of the Eucharist. His life’s mission was to awaken the world to the beauty and centrality of the Blessed Sacrament.
“The world is not bad; it is only ignorant of the treasures of the Eucharist. Bring it to the light of Eucharistic Adoration.”
— Saint Peter Julian EymardA Call to Eucharistic Love
This novena has reminded us that the heart of our Catholic faith is not an idea or a feeling—but a Person, truly present in the Eucharist. And it is Mary, our Mother, who draws us to Him with quiet tenderness.
As we move forward, may the grace of these nine days inspire a renewed commitment to Eucharistic Adoration, to deeper prayer, and to sharing the treasure of Jesus with a world in need of His light.
Our Lady of the Most Blessed Sacrament, pray for us.
