The Perks of Living with Priests

Tonight was quite literally awesome.

The men of SPIRITUS live in a rectory with two priests, Fr. Don Zuleger and Fr. Andrew Kurz. Getting up and walking across the parking lot to go to morning Mass at St. Bernadette Parish in Appleton is great for us, since it means we can sleep late (which some of us really enjoy doing on occasion). But the real perk of living with the priests is nights like tonight.

Mark, our coordinator, scheduled some "House Adoration" time this evening--time for the men and the women to pray in front of the Eucharist as separate households, rather than as a whole community together (which is how we normally do our weekly hour of Eucharistic Adoration). For the men, this turned out to be rather providential, as Fr. Andrew arranged to preside at private Exposition of the Blessed Sacrament for us in the side chapel at St. Bernadette's. During our Holy Hour, we also prayed Evening Prayer and Night Prayer, concluding our time with Benediction. Thank you to Fr. Andrew for bringing us Jesus and leading us in prayer!
