Hello fellow St Andrew’s Parishioners and Friends. I hope that you have all had a Blessed Christmas season.
A warm invitation is extended to you All to join our Adoration Team at a hourly hour timeslot that suits you, between the hours of 8:30am and 9:00am on Friday(s) (except for when special arrangements have been made by the Parish to accommodate for other Parish events – these events will be advertised in the Parish weekly Newsletter).
You are invited to attend Adoration on an ad-hoc basis or as a regular Adorer at a timeslot that suits you. Should you wish to become a regular Adorer, please feel free to approach Joan Jackson , Carla Cicolini or myself (Beryl Rahman). You may make contact via email to clarksonadoration@gmail.com and a Team member will be in touch to discuss your preference with you.
For our regular Adorers, kindly remember to sign-in to the weekly Sign-in Sheets located in the blue folder in the church foyer. This will help us gauge the attendance numbers, to ensure we have adequate cover for each Adoration session. A friendly reminder that should you not be able to attend your timeslot for any given reason, kindly make contact with your Team Leader and they will provide adequate cover to ensure that the Blessed Sacrament is never left alone.
Thank you once again to Fr Darek and Fr Marian for providing us with the opportunity to be in a intimate and prayerful space with Jesus each week.
2023 Blessings to you and your family

ADORATION Prayer (video)
“Jesus awaits us in this sacrament of love. Let us not refuse the time to go to meet him in adoration, in contemplation full of faith, and open to making amends for the serious offenses and crimes of the world. Let our adoration never cease.”
— SAINT POPE JOHN PAUL II
Prayer of St. Francis of Assisi before the Blessed Sacrament
“We adore You, O Lord Jesus Christ, in this Church and all the Churches of the world, and we bless You, because, by Your holy Cross You have redeemed the world.“
Prayer for the Spread of Perpetual Adoration
Heavenly Father, increase our faith in the Real Presence of Your Son Jesus Christ in the Holy Eucharist.
We are obliged to adore Him, to give Him thanks and to make reparation for sins.
We need your peace in our hearts and among nations.
We need conversion from our sins and the mercy of Your forgiveness.
May we obtain this through prayer and our union with the Eucharistic Lord.
Please send down the Holy Spirit upon all peoples to give them the love, courage, strength and willingness to respond to the invitation to Eucharistic Adoration.
We beseech You to spread Perpetual Adoration of the Most Blessed Sacrament in parishes around the world.
We ask this in the name of Jesus the Lord. Amen
Our Lady of the Most Blessed Sacrament
Help us to spread the glory of Your Son through Perpetual Adoration.

Pray for us, O Virgin Immaculate, our Lady of the Most Blessed Sacrament.
That the Eucharistic Kingdom of Jesus Christ may come among us!
