"To souls enamored of God, hours spent before Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament appear moments."
St Alphonsus Liguori


Help Fill the House with the Fragrance of Eucharistic Adoration

In the Gospel of John, Mary anointed Our Lord with costly oil worth nearly a year’s wages, and “the house was filled with the fragrance of the oil.” (John 12:3)  Jesus received that act of love with great pleasure.
 
Eucharistic Adoration is like that costly oil—a hidden offering of love that fills homes, parishes, chapels, and souls with the presence of Christ. But someone must pay for the oil.  Adoration Servants exists to help souls find Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament through chapel support, chapel search tools, Eucharistic education, and practical help for parishes and adorers across the country.
 
Your gift helps that fragrance spread.
 
Like Martha, we serve so others may choose the better part with Mary—time at the feet of Jesus in Adoration. Will you help provide the oil?

Help Us in Our Work to Grow Adoration.
 
Eucharistic Adoration is sustained not only by devotion, but by the hidden work that makes devotion possible. Adoration Servants develops the systems, tools, and infrastructure to help chapels grow, adorers remain faithful, and Eucharistic devotion flourish. Developed by adorers for adorers.

Why did we start doing this in the first place? Because we were lazy and . . .
+ There Had to be a Better Way

Why do we keep doing this? Ask Edie . . .
+ One Little Old Lady Would Not Let Adoration Die

Why are we now seriously asking for financial support instead of pridefully trying to do it all ourselves? Because . . .
+ Sacred Heart Revelations Brought Us to Tears

Behind Every Holy Hour Is Hidden Work
Many people see the chapel, the monstrance, and the silence before Our Lord.
 
Few see the hidden work required to support that adoration.

Adoration Servants builds and maintains chapel management systems, nationwide chapel search tools, mobile applications, chapel communication systems, registration systems, and Eucharistic outreach resources used by adorers, chapel coordinators, and parishes. These are not simple websites.

They are specialized systems developed over many years—requiring tens of thousands of dollars in programming, hosting, security, maintenance, mapping systems, texting systems, and ongoing support.

Like Martha, much of this work happens behind the scenes so others may choose the better part of adoration with Mary. Your support helps keep these tools available—free of charge—to chapels and adorers who need them most.
 
Someone must provide the oil.
 


A Letter from the Founder about Donations

7th Anniversary of Blessed Pope John Paul II’s Death


It has been seven years today since I first talked at length with Pope John Paul II. Upon hearing of his death, I had my first long, prayer conversation with this great man. I introduced myself and told him how I had been blessed to support Eucharistic Adoration on different levels. I told him my hopes and dreams to grow Eucharistic adoration and I prayed to him that he watch over and bless the work I would be involved in.

On that day I began frantically working on a tribute for the Pope John Paul II Eucharistic Adoration Association of the Archdiocese of Chicago. It had been a year earlier that Adoration Servants took its domain name on the feast of St Mary Magdalene. For years I worked with nothing other than the web name, volunteering time and money where it could be used, and when it could be spared. Martha and Mary became our patrons with Luke 10:38-42 our bible verse.

Skipping some details, a few months back (way back when this was first written) we became a fully IRS tax-exempt 501(c)(3) organization. With the prospect of respectable board members wanting Adoration Servants to start engaging in more activities in more ways, I needed to get the public face of the website revamped to a more complete picture of our organization. I also needed to be able to provide a way to accept donations. I was reluctant to spend my limited time on this public face. I complained in my prayers that I should work on improvements for the chapels if I should do anything. And besides, I told our Lord in prayer, first I need to setup the credit card processing, the banks, the websites, and the databases. This is serious security and I told the Lord, someday I will do it when I find the time, but time it will take, more than I have right now. Only then will Adoration Servants grow it seems.

Well, the very next day, per chance it seemed, I stumbled across www.razoo.com a 501(c)(3) dedicated to the fundraising management of other 501(c)(3)’s. They do it all competitively. The Lord took away my excuse and I had to get the rest of the site up to a presentable level.

I went live with the new site today, the 7th anniversary of Blessed John Paul’s death. Seven is the biblical number of perfection and I pray that this may be the start of powerful intercession from our great past pope.

In addition at Mass today the Gospel was John 12:1-11, where Jesus visits Lazarus, Martha, and Mary. Of course Martha served but this time Mary anointed Jesus with costly oil worth 300 days wages. The “house was filled with the fragrance of oil.” Jesus seemed quite pleased. Someone paid for that oil.

Won’t you please consider giving some of your costly oil to Jesus , via Adoration Servants, in the form of the secure online payment provided on this page or send a check to the address provided below? Help the fragrance of Eucharistic Adoration grow by helping Adoration Servants serve.

Thank you.
