Adoration of the Eucharist has returned to Our Lady of Mercy Church on the first Friday of the month! Adoration will begin with Exposition of the Sacrament at 7:00 PM and continue through 10:00 PM with Benediction at that hour. All OLM parishioners are invited to participate in prayerful reflection and spend time in the Real Presence of Our Lord. We have established 30 minute “appointments” between 7:00 PM and 10:00. Anyone wishing to spend an hour (or more) is encouraged to reserve multiple appointments.
Those of you who have participated in Nocturnal Adoration may notice some changes from the approach we have employed for many years. In this time of the COVID-19 pandemic, we must observe certain protocols to ensure the continued safety of our OLM Community. As a result, please note the following:
- All participants must wear a face covering in the building.
- Adoration will take place in the main church (not the chapel) and all attendees will be seated using the social distancing requirements we have established for Mass.
- Attendees should enter the building through the Gathering Space where they will be checked in and directed to a seat.
- No books or handouts will be available. With the exception of Exposition and Benediction, Adoration of the Eucharist will consist of private prayer and reflection.
- Click on the tab below if you are interested in joining in the prayers during Exposition and Benediction of the Eucharist. You may print the prayers in advance or look at them on your smartphone:

ADORATION OF THE EUCHARIST PRAYERS
-
O SAVING VICTIM/O SALUTARIS HOSTIA
O salutaris hostia,
Quae caeli pandis ostium:
Bella premunt hostilia’
Da robur fer auxilium.
Uni trinoque Domino
Sit sempiterna Gloria:
Qui vitam sine termino
Nobis donet in patria.
O Saving Victim, op’ning wide
The gate of heav’n to us below!
Our foes press on from ev’ry side:
Your aid supply, your strength bestow.
To your great name be endless praise,
Immortal Godhead, One in Three;
O grant us endless length of days
When our true native land we see.

Come Adore/Tantum Ergo Sacramentum
Tantum ergo Sacramentum
Veneremur cernui:
Et antiquum documentum
Novo cedat ritui:
Praestet fides supplementum
Sensuum defectui
Genitori Genitoque
Laus et jubilatio,
Salus, honor, virtus quoque
Sit et benedictio:
Procedenti ab utroque
Compar sit laudatio.
Come adore this wondrous presence,
Bow to Christ the source of grace.
Here is kept the ancient promise
Of God’s earthly dwelling place.
Sight is blind before God’s glory,
Faith alone may see his face.
Glory be to God the Father,
Praise to his coequal Son,
Adoration to the Spririt,
Bond of love, in Godhead one.
Blest be God by all creation
Joyously while ages run.

HOLY GOD, WE PRAISE THY NAME
Holy God, we praise thy name!
Lord of all, we bow before thee;
All on earth thy scepter claim,
All in heav’n above adore thee;
Infinite thy vast domain,
Everlasting is thy reign.
Hark! The loud celestial hymn
Angel choirs above are raising;
Cherubim and Seraphim
In unceasing chorus praising,
Fill the heav’ns with sweet accord:
Holy, holy, holy Lord!
