The Treasure of Eucharistic Adoration - Part III
Submitted by Fr. Robert McKeon on Sat, 02/06/2010 - 5:30pm.Continuing our reflection on Eucharistic Adoration, we consider more aspects about the link between adoration and the fruitful reception of Holy Communion. There are many ways that God and the Church try to help us see and understand the close connection between adoring Christ in the Eucharist and receiving him in Holy Communion. Adoring Christ from the heart should lead to the desire for and reception of Holy Communion and receiving Holy Communion in love should lead to wanting to and spending more time with Jesus in prayer and adoration.

The Treasure of Eucharistic Adoration - Part II
Submitted by Fr. Robert McKeon on Sat, 01/30/2010 - 5:30pm.We look more closely today at the link between adoration and the fruitful reception of Holy Communion. This link is strong and true due to the fact that Celebration of the Mass and adoration of the Eucharist are bonded together and mutually compliment each other. We can say that adoration develops in us a longing and hunger to be in union with Christ through Holy Communion. We can also say that, after worthily receiving Holy Communion, a desire is born in us to remain with Christ and to have His presence to continue to shine in our hearts.
