Adoration by Candlelight with Monstrance Blessed by St. John Paul II
March 19 7:00 - 8:00 pm
Co-Cathedral of the Sacred Heart, Saint Joseph Parkway, Houston, TX, USA
The monstrance, pictured on the flyer, was blessed by St. John Paul II as a Monstrance to be used for Adoration for Vocations.
In 2004, late Pope John Paul II blessed 6 monstrances for use during the Year of the Eucharist.
In 2005, the Holy Father presented one of the six monstrances to the USCCB, who in turn gave the Monstrance to Serra with the instructions to fulfill the Pope’s request, that the Monstrance be used in local parishes so that all Catholics far and wide would come together and pray for vocations.
