Eucharistic Adoration
 Coordinators: Larry & Bea Cates 857.2163

 Eucharistic adoration is a devotion in which the members of a parish unite their efforts to pray constantly day and night, before the Most Blessed Sacrament. It is prayer of adoration and intercession for the world, the church and our parish. 

 It is there to supply a living witness to the Lord's Real Presence in the Eucharist; a continual guard of honor; incessant thanksgiving, prayer, and reparation for the parish, the diocese, the church and the world; and an opportunity for silent, private prayer and listening in His Presence at any hour of the day or night. Consider this hour of adoration as something you give to Christ, a special time for saying "Thank You" for all His love and forgiveness.

CHAPEL INFORMATION

Centering Prayer
 Coordinator: Karen Gookin 509.306.0431

 Centering Prayer is a modern adaptation of the age-old practice of contemplative prayer. Developed in the early 1980s by a Trappist monk named Father Thomas Keating, Centering Prayer offers a prayer-relationship with God which takes place in silence. This group meets each Monday, 5:15 to 6:00 p.m. in the Meditation room.

Prayer Chain
 Coordinator: Rosemary Harrell 925-1015

 The purpose of the prayer chain is to offer anyone asking for prayer, the promise and commitment that their concerns will be lifted up to God in prayer by the prayer chain members. Respecting the confidentiality of those who request our prayers, the members of the prayer chain relay the prayer request to the prayer chain members by telephone.

Schoenstatt Rosary Shrine
 Coordinators:
 Karen McGuirk 425.765.4015
 Ximena Hedrick 509.962.6200

 All parishioners are welcome to have the shrine in their homes to pray the rosary in its presence, to invite Mary in to bring renewal and to work miracles of grace. The shrine, which dates back to Schoenstatt, Germany in 1319, was destroyed during Napoleon's time, and was reinstated as a movement in 1914. St. Andrew's has three shrines that rotate among parishioners for 2 days to 2 weeks at a time.
