Spiritual Devotion
Adoration
Choose either quiet reflection to look within your self and connect with Christ or join in group prayer or faith sharing.
Adoration
Eucharistic Adoration is our response to Jesus’ love for us, whereby each of us is willing to spend a quiet holy hour of prayer in His Eucharistic Presence. Consider signing up for an hour of adoration once a week as an Adorer.
You may also serve in the organizational structure of Perpetual Adoration on the Adoration Committee Team.

We Feel Our Chapel Exists Because of Our Blessed Mother’s Intercession
The Marian Prayer group has met for sixteen years at St. Johns on Thursday evenings. They had prayed for many years that they could have a place for Perpetual Adoration.
Then after Bishop Bernard Harrington called for a Perpetual Eucharist Adoration Chapel to be opened in each Deanery of the Diocese of Winona, Fr. Colletti gave permission to the Marian Prayer group to start planning for a place for the chapel. At that same time a person came to Fr. Colletti and said that in 1996 while visiting in Medjugorje he heard a voice as clear as could be that said to “build a place of Perpetual Adoration for my Son, Jesus.” He wrote the words in a little notebook and put the page in his billfold. He carried that piece of paper for many years, not knowing what to do with it. Then he heard Fr. Colletti talk about building an Adoration Chapel at St. Johns during a Mass. He contacted Fr. Colletti and offered to pay for everything.
The city of Mankato answered the call for Perpetual Eucharistic Adoration at St. John’s on January 6, 2002; the chapel in it’s ninth year is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. It is open to all in our community and the surrounding towns who seek to have some time alone with Jesus
The piece of paper with the message from Medjugorje is now framed and hanging outside the Adoration Chapel. We feel the chapel exists because of our Blessed Mother’s intercession.
