Eucharistic Adoration for Priests and People

In his letter of September 21 to the people of the Archdiocese, Archbishop Cordileone invited us to come together to share our thoughts, speak our needs, and offer our prayers. He  scheduled five "listening sessions," opportunities for people in the Archdiocese to meet with him and speak to him directly. He also wrote:

"It is clear to me that prayer and sacrifices must also be offered up for the renewal of the Church. Most especially, we must pray for those who have been abused at the hands of clerics: they are the victims of the deepest betrayal imaginable, and more than anyone else need and deserve our support and care. 

"I am designating three successive First Fridays of the month for our priests to dedicate themselves to Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament and to serious bodily fasting. Adoration will take place from 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. on October 5, November 2, and December 7, and priests are asked to sign up for at least one hour (and preferably more if they can) of Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament on those days at one of the following locations:
 
 Friday, October 5, 9:00 a.m. - 6:00 p.m.  - St. Mary’s Cathedral, San Francisco

 Friday, November 2, 9:00 a.m. - 6:00 p.m.  -  St. Isabella Parish, San Rafael
 
Friday, December 7, 9:00 a.m. - 6:00 p.m.  -  St. Matthew Parish, San Mateo.
 
 "On Saturday,  December 15, from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon, these three churches will all host Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament for you, our lay faithful, deacons, and religious, to join with your priests in prayer. Of course, you are also welcome to join them if you wish on any of the other three prior days of Adoration."
