Adoration

Eucharistic adoration is the adoration of Jesus Christ present in the Holy Eucharist. The most common form of Eucharistic Adoration is when the Blessed Sacrament is exposed in a special vessel called a Monstrance and placed on the altar so that the faithful can quietly pray in the presence of the Lord. Adoration begins with a liturgical service called Exposition and ends with a liturgical service called Benediction.
