Yesterday I wrote at Catholic Exchange on how "Eucharistic Adoration Will Save the World." To that end, I'd like to invite you, dear brother or sister in Christ, to consider asking your priest(s) to offer a Holy Hour for the Sanctification of Priests on the Memorial of St. John Vianney, Patron of Parish Priests, which …
