Thursday, July 2, 2026, 7:00 PMFreedom in Christ
You are warmly invited to join us for a Holy Hour of Adoration, Benediction, and Evening Prayer (Vespers)—a sacred time to rest in the presence of Christ and to rediscover the true freedom He offers.
In a world that often defines freedom as self-sufficiency or control, Jesus reveals a deeper truth: “If the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed” (John 8:36). True freedom is found not in striving, but in surrender—placing our lives, fears, and hopes into the loving hands of Christ.
As missionary disciples, we gather first to be with the Lord, allowing His presence to heal, restore, and renew us. In Eucharistic adoration, we encounter the One who frees us from sin, fear, and isolation, and draws us into the fullness of life. Here, Christ invites us to lay down whatever binds us and receive the peace only He can give.
Rooted in a spirit of hospitality, this Holy Hour welcomes all—wherever you find yourself on your faith journey. Together, we create space for stillness, prayer, and encounter, trusting that the Holy Spirit is at work within each heart.
During Evening Prayer (Vespers), we unite our voices with the prayer of the Church throughout the world, offering the day to God and resting in His faithfulness. Through Benediction, we receive Christ’s blessing and are sent forth renewed—called to live as missionary disciples who bring His freedom, hope, and love into the world.
Come and rest in the Lord.
Come and be set free.
Come and be sent.All are welcome.
Reflection Questions for Prayer
You may wish to reflect quietly on one or two of these questions during the Holy Hour:
Where do I most long for Christ’s freedom in my life right now?
What fears, habits, or burdens might the Lord be inviting me to release?
How have I experienced Christ’s freedom bringing healing or peace?
In what ways am I being called to help others encounter the freedom Christ offers?
How can I live more fully as a missionary disciple rooted in Christ’s love?
