St. Anthony Perpetual Adoration Chapel

Could you not watch with me one hour? - Matthew 26:40

Adoration 24/7

Brothers and sisters in Christ, we would like to invite you to participate in our 24/7 perpetual adoration chapel at St. Luke Parish. It is a wonderful opportunity to spend time with Our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament. Those who participate often describe it as “life-changing,” and enjoy the comfortable living room atmosphere! We regularly need substitutes and/or full-time commitments for open hours, vacations, illness, etc. Please contact Heidi Klug at {{or call the parish office at (859) 885-4892 if you would like more information.
