St. Mary's Chapel of Perpetual Adoration
A chapel of perpetual Eucharistic adoration, where weary souls encounter the tender, transforming gaze of Christ truly present—body, blood, soul, and divinity—in the Most Blessed Sacrament.
Our vision: a sacred sanctuary of unending prayer, fostering unity, awe, and profound spiritual renewal for all who enter, day and night.
Through this Gala Fundraiser, unite with us to sustain this beacon of divine love and reparation.
