Perpetual Eucharistic Adoration has been a cherished practice of FSPA since August 1, 1878—hence our name: Franciscan Sisters of Perpetual Adoration. Through February 25, 2020, at least two people prayed before the Blessed Sacrament every hour of the day and night in our Adoration Chapel. Today, we continue this prayer daily. It is a way of maintaining awareness of God's presence in our lives and praying for the community, the city of La Crosse, Wisconsin, the church and the world. This featured photo is of early adorers, circa 1906.

Let's come together in gratitude as we honor 146 years of continuous prayer, seeking God's presence for the well-being of our community and beyond.
