Great Lent idea - give one hour to Jesus each week

The Adoration Chapel in Ama lets visitors spend an hour in the presence of the Holy Eucharist, which is considered by Catholics to be the true physical presence of Jesus.

They claim to be happier, more content with their lives and have increased peace in their families.To sign up for an hour during Lent, call Debbie Caire at 985-785-2032.
