Adoration Chapel 27 Year Celebration

Please join us in celebrating the 27th anniversary of the Perpetual Adoration Chapel of the Nelson Diocese on September 8, the Nativity of Our Lady. This year to celebrate we ask everyone to thank God our Father, Jesus, the Holy Spirit and Our Lady by offering an hour of thanksgiving prayer and adoration. 

We thank all adorers alive and deceased who have faithfully adored Jesus 24/7 through all the years. We especially thank our humble devoted coordinator Lori Sharko for her faithfulness and love for Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament.

We consecrate our chapel anew to Mary, our Blessed Mother, and honour her on the feast day of her Nativity.
