In today’s secular society many Catholics have doubt about the Eucharist. Visit this OLG exhibition, which was borne of Blessed Carlo Acutis's desire to catalog all of the documented Eucharistic miracles around the world to further our appreciation for the True and Real Presence of Jesus in the Eucharist.
Come and have your heart transformed.

Please sign up for a one hour slot to sit with the relics while they are on display.

Sensory Friendly Mass at OLG

What is a Sensory Mass? Simply put, it’s a quieter Mass, with less stimuli. People with disabilities are always welcome to participate in all liturgies at Our Lady of Guadalupe Parish. In order to better serve these individuals, the second Sunday of each month, the 11:00 a.m. Mass will provide additional accommodations. If they choose to, families and adults with disabilities can join us for Mass in the Saint Juan Diego Chapel or in the main Church.

Accommodations in the Saint Juan Diego Chapel
Private entrance via the Saint Francis Courtyard
Private bathroom
Lower volume on TV to watch Mass
Calming/quiet area
No incense
Dimmed lights

Feel free to bring comforting toys, noise-cancelling headphones, sun glasses and more to make you or your family member more comfortable.

For questions about the Sensory Friendly Mass at OLG, contact Karen Babik at kbabik1@verizon.net.

When:
The First Friday of each Month.

Time:
After the 8:00 a.m. Mass until Benediction at 4:00 p.m.

Where:
Saint Juan Diego Chapel


First Friday is a special time of grace and blessing, as it enables us, through Eucharistic Adoration, to grow closer to Our Lord, Who is present Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity in the Most Blessed Sacrament. First Friday is a time to slow down a bit and receive God's love into our hearts, so we in turn can give that love to others. Eucharistic Adoration is a great way to focus on Jesus and be refreshed in His service!

How can I get Involved in this Special Time?
Visit the Saint Juan Diego Chapel at Our Lady of Guadalupe Church and spend some quiet time in prayer with Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament. First Friday Mass, Adoration and Benediction will be held in the chapel. The chapel will be open after the 8:00 a.m. Mass until the Benediction at 4:00 p.m.

When:
Sunday, December 01, 2024

Time:
