We ask that all adorers sign up and request substitutes via our We Adore page, not through email. Learn how to create an account here. It's free!
If you do not feel well or experiencing a fever, cough, or respiratory symptoms, please do not visit the chapel until your symptoms subside.
Important Notes- The chapel is limited to eight adorers at a time. The seats are blocked off to ensure social distancing. (Use the outermost seats in the back rows of the prayer benches only.) If there are eight adorers present when you arrive, please wait outside the building/in your car until one person leaves.
- Masks are optional but encouraged.
- Adorers are responsible for keeping the chapel and restrooms clean. Cleaning wipes will be available. Please clean anything that you touch, especially your seat area right before you leave, door handles, and any sink or toilet handle.
- You may bring your own books and materials for reflection; however, please take all of your belongings with you when you leave the chapel.
- All exterior doors to the church building will be closed with the exception of the double doors adjacent to the chapel. (Doors will be open during Mass for restroom use). Utilize the ramp, if necessary, as the elevator will not be accessible. A swipe card or fab is still needed to enter the building between 10 p.m. - 6 a.m.
Other Suggested Steps for Sanitation
- Before entering the chapel, wash hands thoroughly with soap and water in the restroom, or at a minimum use hand sanitizer.
- Use your elbow to activate the automatic door to minimize surface contact.
- Maintain social distancing by occupying an open seat at either end of the back row of the prayer benches.
- Minimize touching surfaces with your hand (e.g. use your feet to move the kneelers up and down)
- Wipe off the door handles, or use a wipe to open the door
- Discard your sanitizing wipes in the bins provided.
- Wash hands thoroughly before leaving.
If you need to leave the chapel for any reason - including the conclusion of your Holy Hour - and no one is remaining there to keep watch:
- A blessed cover is located on the table inside the chapel next to the automatic handicap door. You may cover the Blessed Sacrament before leaving.
- If you arrive and the Blessed Sacrament is covered, remove the cover, return it to the box, and begin your time of adoration.
If you are physically unable to cover or uncover the monstrance safely, please call or text 317.645.8214 for assistance.
