S.D. Ida Peterfy (1922 to 2000)
Hungarian Nun and Foundress of the Society Devoted To The Sacred Heart Of Jesus
"Adoration is a personal encounter with Jesus in the Eucharist. It is a loving conversation with Him who loves us infinitely. It is a silent listening to His voice who speaks to our hearts. It is a joyful praise of His glory who fills us with His grace. It is a humble petition of His mercy who forgives us our sins. It is a grateful thanksgiving for His goodness who blesses us with His gifts."

Cardinal John O'Connor (1920 to 2000)
Cardinal and Archbishop of Chicago, Illinois
"It is most heartening to learn that young men and women, in their late teens and twenties, are increasingly attracted to meditative prayer in the Presence of Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament. May all the faithful find in the Eucharist their source of strength and courage to imitate our Lady, totally open to his will in their daily lives. It is my hope that this devotion to Jesus in the Eucharist will spread to more and more parishes and dioceses across our nation."

S.D. Salustiano Míguelez Romero (1919 to 1999)
Spanish Augustian Priest
"Let us visit the blessed sacrament often, not only to ask for favors, but also to give thanks, to praise, to worship, to console, to love. Let us visit him as friends, as brothers, as children, as spouses. Let us visit him as the most precious treasure, the most beautiful pearl, the most sublime mystery, the most tender heart."

Religious name - María de la Purísima of the Cross,
Spanish Nun canonized in 2015 just 17 years after her death
"Let us be faithful to our visits to the Blessed Sacrament, where Jesus waits for us with infinite love. Let us offer Him our prayers, our sacrifices, our joys and sorrows, our needs and desires. Let us tell Him everything, as we would tell a friend who loves us and understands us. He will listen to us, He will console us, He will guide us, He will bless us."

(Source: "Reflections and Prayers for Visits with Our Eucharistic Lord" book by John J. Cardinal Carberry)

"I am not in an audiencresent as my God, my Lord, my Redeemer, the Creator of heaven and earth, my all. I believe, dear Jesus, that You are truly present, boe with our Holy Father, nor am I in the presence of a saint from heaven, nor with some distinguished personality. Before me, dear Jesus, You are present under the frail appearance of the host. With the eyes of faith I believe that You are pdy and blood, soul and divinity, in the most Blessed Sacrament."

S.D. Padre Leopoldo Pastori (1939 to 1996)
Italian Missionary Monk for the PIME Fathers
"I am seeking to live my ideal: to be a missionary-contemplative so as to announce Christ in a credible manner. I give much time to prayer before the Eucharist, at least five hours a day, as did the first PIME (Pontifical Institute for the Foreign Missions) missionaries. And I am experiencing, given that Jesus wants to increase and wants me to decrease, that prayer is becoming continual, by day, and when I wake up, by night."

Bishop Glennon Flavin (1916 to 1995)
Bishop Emeritus of the Diocese of Lincoln, Nebraska
"And then, dear seminarians, you’ve got to teach your people to love the Blessed Sacrament.... First of all, you teach them by your own reverence for Our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament.... Secondly, preach to them about it.... Introduce perpetual adoration in your parishes wherever it’s feasible. What better way could we teach our people to love our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament than to preach perpetual adoration day and night? You think it’s impossible? It’s being done in hundreds of parishes throughout our country!... This is telling people again Who the Eucharist is! Seminarians, start now to develop your great love and awe, and your reverence for the Holy Eucharist."
(Source: “Reflections and Prayers for Visits with Our Eucharistic Lord" updated by Bishop Flavin, 1986, Pauline Books and Media)

"Our young people have to come to love Our Lord before they will leave all things to follow Him. One of the ways to bring them to that point is to ask them to make a five or ten minute visit with Our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament every day. Just to sit in His presence and talk with Him and listen to Him. As they get to know Him, He will begin to reveal Himself to them more and more. How their love for Him will grow in their souls!

"I beg you to make a holy hour every week before the Blessed Sacrament. It will be the best hour you spend on earth. It will be an hour of grace, of peace, of joy, of love. It will be an hour of transformation, of renewal, of strength. It will be an hour of union with Christ, who loves you more than you can imagine."

"Let us ask our Lord to give us a great love for the Eucharist, to make us realize that it is he himself who is there, waiting for us, to fill us with his joy and his peace. Let us ask him to help us to be generous in our correspondence to his love, to be faithful to our daily Mass, to our visits to the Blessed Sacrament, to our spiritual communion."

Ven. Thomas Morales Perez (1908 to 1994)
Jesuit Priest who founded the Institutos Seculares de los Cruzados de María
"Contemplation is not a technique of specialists, a privilege exclusive to a few. It is rather the natural consequence of a soul that loves God and, full of admiration, adores in silence."

King Baudouin Of Belgium (1930 to 1993)
King of Belgium and devout Catholic
Despite his busy schedule he would sit in Eucharistic Adoration for 3 hours every day. He commented that sitting before the Blessed Sacrament was like sitting in the sun; nothing is required of you but to come out of the shade, and you only feel the strength of its effects later.

St. Irma Dulce (1914 to 1992)
Brazilian Franciscan Nun and founder of the Charitable Works Foundation of Sister Dulce
"I also like to visit the chapel and spend some time in silence before the tabernacle, where Jesus is present. It is a moment of prayer, of intimacy, of gratitude. I thank Him for everything He has done for me and for the people I serve. I ask Him for strength, wisdom, patience, and love. I also ask Him to bless my work and the work of all those who collaborate with me."

Ven. Alphonse Gallegos (1931 to 1991)
Auxillary Bishop of Sacramento, California
Gallegos was a Eucharistic man; he celebrated Mass with great reverence and inspired others to want to be with Christ, in the Holy Eucharist. The Eucharist was his hidden treasure: Gallegos spent hours before the Blessed Sacrament daily, rising early to converse with Christ, beginning his day with a renewed desire for God and to strive for holiness...It is probably not by chance that Bishop Gallegos served in the Diocese of Sacramento, where he loved to adore Jesus Christ in the Blessed Sacrament, Santísimo Sacramento. Gallegos would often say upon returning from his travels to Sacramento, “I am glad to be back home in Sacramento, my little piece of heaven".

S.D. Pierre Goursat (1914 to 1991)
Founder of the Emmanuel Community and the Fraternity Of Jesus
"One purpose of adoration, naturally, is to honour the Body and He art of Christ, but in addition to this, adoration is the place where we can ask to be set on fire with love, that we be enflamed with love, so as to in turn ignite our brothers and sisters. The Church of today has gone cold. The only way of transforming and revitalising the Church is through love; love which comes from the Heart of Jesus. This is something to be asked for during adoration and through confident trusting prayer."

S.D. Pedro Arrupe (1907 to 1991)
Spanish Priest and the 28th Superior General of the Jesuits
"'Would you like to have some good advice from me? Look upon Jesus as your friend, as your confidant. Learn to go and see Him, to visit Him, to 'remain' with Him, and you will see how many things you will learn... "Tell me with whom you associate and I shall tell you who you are." If you go with Jesus, if you remain with Jesus, you will certainly become yourself another Jesus."

Italian Priest and co-founder of the Apostolate Of The Suffering
"(The Eucharist) is Jesus Himself, really present among us, who invites us, who calls us, who waits for us, who loves us. How can we resist His voice, His appeal, His invitation, His love?

To spend time in his presence, to adore him in the Blessed Sacrament, is to enter into a personal and profound communion with our Lord and Savior."

St. Oscar Romero (1917 to 1980)
Martyr and Archbishop of San Salvador in El Salvador
"This Eucharist is an act of faith. Through Christian faith we know that at this moment the Wheaten Host is transformed into the body of the Lord, who offered Himself for the redemption of the world, and in this chalice the wine is transformed into the blood that was the price of salvation. May this body immolated and this blood sacrificed for mankind nourish us also, so that we may give our body and our blood to suffering and to pain, like Christ, not for self, but to bring about a harvest of justice and peace for our people." - (Following these words, at the beginning of Mass, Archbishop Romero was martyred in the Hospital Chapel where he regularly observed a Holy Hour of Eucharistic Adoration)

It is there that we find Jesus, who waits for us with open arms, ready to listen to us, to comfort us, to heal us, to transform us into his image. He invites us to share in his divine life, to become his friends, his brothers, his spouses. He wants to give us everything, if only we open our hearts to him and let him enter.

"Your role before the tabernacle [is to be]: living lamps before Jesus in the Eucharist; handmaids of honor of the tabernacle and of its Divine Dweller; angels of the Eucharist who receive and who give; souls who hunger and thirst for the bread of the Eucharist and the water of His grace; hearts that share with their Spouse in the Eucharist His desires, His goals, His self-sacrifice for all; the intimate confidantes of Jesus in the Host, listening to His every word of life and meditating on it in your heart, as Mary did."

"You can resolve all your difficulties in front of the tabernacle. Many times this will suffice instead of trying to find the answer to so many objections and difficulties. This is all you need to find inner peace once again."

"The Eucharistic visit for the apostle is like an audience, or a school, where the disciple engages in conversation with the Divine Master. Many methods are proposed for obtaining the maximum fruit from this practice. But especially suitable is the one which honors Jesus Master, Way, Truth and Life. First of all, the visit is not a complex of prayers. It is precisely a 'visit,' something you'd make to a dear person, your mother, for example. There is an exchange of greetings, an exchange of news, of gifts, promises, etc. The visit has the scope of establishing our lives in Jesus Christ, that is, to live in Jesus, for Jesus, with Jesus."

"When you adore the Blessed Sacrament consider yourself the representative of the whole human race with Jesus. . . That He may give strength to the weak, light to those who live in darkness. That souls may flee from sin, that sinners repent, that those consecrated to God be filled with zeal and holiness.”
(Source: Eucharistic Adoration Canada website – https://eucharisticadorationcanada.com/)

"Eucharistic adoration has the purpose of grounding our life in Christ Jesus, through Jesus, with Jesus. It is the secret of our transformation.
It is the creature meeting his Creator;
The disciple before the Divine Master;
The patient with the Doctor of souls;
The poor one appealing to the rich One;
The thirsty one drinking at the Font;
The weak one presenting himself to the Almighty;
The tempted one seeking a sure Refuge;
The blind one searching for the light;
The friend who goes to the True Friend;
The lost sheep sought by the divine Shepherd;
The heart led astray who finds the Way;
The foolish one who finds Wisdom;
The bride who finds the Spouse of the soul;
The nothing who finds the All;
The afflicted who finds the Consoler;
The youth who finds life’s meaning.
It is the shepherds at the manager, Magdalene at the house of Simon, Nicodemus who arrives by night.
It is the holy conversations of the Samaritan, of Zacchaeus, of Philip and of all the apostles with Jesus, especially during the last week of his earthly life and after the resurrection."

Bl. Clemens August Graf von Galen (1878 to 1946)
Cardinal and Bishop of Munster, Germany
Cardinal Galen lived during the reign of the Nazi's in Germany. "He countered the deafening martial music and the empty phrases blaring from the amplifiers of the speakers' platforms with the veneration of the Blessed Eucharist, the silence of contemplative adoration of the Lord who made himself Bread. Before the Lord present in the Sacrament of the Eucharistic Bread, apparently defenceless and thus not easy to recognize, he found the strength and nourishment that alone could permanently satisfy the human desire for life."

Bl. Teresa Bracco (1924 to 1944)
Martyr
Blessed Teresa Bracco developed a great love for the Blessed Sacrament from an early age. Besides going to daily Mass she was often found in her local Church, in Eucharist Adoration before the Tabernacle, immobile and almost ecstatic adoring our beloved Lord. While most of us will not attain that height of contemplation we can still follow Blessed Teresa's example and volunteer to cover at least one hour of Eucharistic Adoration a week at our local Perpetual Eucharistic Adoration program.

Martyr and Carmelite Nun (Original name was Edith Stein)
"To make room in our life for the Eucharistic Lord, so that He can change our life into His, is that asking too much?"
(Source: Venite Adoremus Dominum blog- https://veniteadoremusdominum.blogspot.com/)

"The Lord is present in the tabernacle in his divinity and in his humanity. He is not present for his own sake but for ours: it is his delight to be with the 'children of men.' He knows, too, that, being what we are, we need his personal nearness. In consequence, every thoughtful and sensitive person will feel attracted and will be there as often and as long as possible. And the practice of the Church, which has instituted perpetual adoration, is just as clear."

"For every Catholic there lies ready an immeasurable treasure: the proximity of the Lord in the holy sacrifice and in the most holy sacrament of the altar. Whoever is imbued with a lively faith in Christ present in the tabernacle, whoever knows that a friend awaits here constantly – always with the time, patience, and sympathy to listen to complaints, petitions, and problems, with counsel and help in all things – this person cannot remain desolate and forsaken even under the greatest difficulties. He always has a refuge where quietude and peace can again be found."

S.D. Aloysius Maria Benziger (1864 to 1942)
Bishop Emeritus of Quilon, India and Titular Archbishop of Antinoe, Egypt
"The more we adore Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament, the more we will love Him and the more we will resemble Him. Adoration is the school of love, where we learn to love what Jesus loves and to avoid what He hates. It is also the school of holiness, where we receive the grace to imitate the virtues of Jesus and to conform our will to His. It is the school of wisdom, where we learn the secrets of His Heart and the mysteries of His Kingdom. It is the school of peace, where we find the true rest for our souls and the consolation for our sorrows. It is the school of joy, where we taste the sweetness of His presence and the foretaste of His glory."

Ven. Giovanni Nadiani (1885 to 1940)
Italian Religious Brother of the Congregation Of The Most Blessed Sacrament
"The hour of adoration is an angelic exercise; it is the most necessary thing to refresh at the fountainhead the roots of virtue, to rekindle the warmth of our spirit at this ardent furnace. Adoration is the most delightful experience. The only happiness, the only joy promised to religious. Adoration is my little Mass. With what commitment I must celebrate it! I must prepare every time a victim to offer. I must renew every day the profound adoration of the Virgin at the moment of the Incarnation, her loving thanksgiving, her immolation, and her prayer."

"My faith was looking at Jesus through the door of that tabernacle, so silent, so patient, so good, gazing right back at me…His gaze was telling me much and asking me for more. It was a gaze in which all the sadness of the Gospels was reflected; the sadness of ‘no room in the Inn”; the sadness of those words, “Do you also want to leave me?”; the sadness of poor Lazarus begging for crumbs from the rich man’s table; the sadness of the betrayal of Judas, the denial of Peter, of the soldier’s slap, of the spittle of the Praetorium, and the abandonment of all."
