Quotes On The Importance Of Eucharistic Adoration

St. Rita of Cascia (1381 to 1457)
Mother, Widow, Stigmatist, Consecrated Religious
She spent her free time in church speaking to the Prisoner of Love on the altar when she was a child. As a wife and mother, her chief delight was to receive into her loving heart the divine Spouse of her soul. Later on, as a nun, she spent whole nights prostrated before the Tabernacle. Yet no matter what duties she was called on to perform, she always loved going to Eucharistic Adoration.

St. Bernardine Of Siena (1380 to 1444)
Italian Priest and Franciscan Missionary
"Prayer is the best preparation for Holy Communion. Prayer is the raising of the mind to God. When we pray we go to meet Christ Who is coming to us. If our Creator and Savior comes from heaven with such great love, it is only fitting that we should go to meet Him. And this is what we do when we spend some time in prayer."
