It’s a quiet, peaceful time to pray, reflect, and simply be with Jesus—heart to heart. Whether you stay for five minutes or a full hour, Exposition offers a powerful opportunity to deepen your relationship with God.
We’re always looking for volunteers to cover each hour of Exposition so that our Lord is never left alone.
Contact any of our parish offices to learn more.

“The Rosary is the weapon for these times.” — St. Padre Pio
We warmly invite you to join our parish to pray the rosary 30 minutes prior to our weekend Masses in the church.
Whether you’re new to the Rosary or have been praying it for years, all are welcome to come together in this special prayer.
1. Begin with the Sign of the Cross.
Hold the crucifix and make the Sign of the Cross.
2. Pray the Apostles’ Creed.
Recite the Apostles’ Creed on the crucifix.
3. Say the Our Father.
On the first large bead, pray the Our Father.
4. Pray three Hail Marys.
On the next three small beads, pray one Hail Mary each—for faith, hope, and charity.
5. Say the Glory Be.
On the chain after the three Hail Marys, pray the Glory Be.
6. Announce the First Mystery and Pray the Our Father.
Each decade focuses on one Mystery (joyful, sorrowful, glorious, or luminous). Announce the Mystery, then pray the Our Father on the large bead.
7. Pray ten Hail Marys.
On the next ten small beads, pray a Hail Mary for each bead while meditating on the Mystery.
8. Say the Glory Be and the Fatima Prayer.
After the ten Hail Marys, pray the Glory Be and then the Fatima Prayer:
"O my Jesus, forgive us our sins, save us from the fires of hell; lead all souls to Heaven, especially those in most need of Your mercy."
9. Repeat steps 6-8 for the remaining four Mysteries.
10. End with the Hail Holy Queen and the Sign of the Cross.
