For sixty years, from the day of his ordination to the priesthood to the day of his death, Fulton J. Sheen spent one hour fulfilling his promise to "keep watch" in the presence of Our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament. Throughout his ministry, he never tired of preaching the spiritual benefits to others.
Archbishop Sheen's love for Eucharistic Adoration grew out of his heartfelt conviction that this devotion provides three immense blessings: It allows every believer to share in Our Lord's work of redemption in a specific and concrete way. It fulfills Our Lord's desire and request for our friendship and company. It helps us to grow to be more like the Lord.
In this book, the writings of Archbishop Sheen are arranged for Eucharistic Adoration.
