- Throughout the day Sisters are scheduled for either a half hour or one hour of the “Adoring Rosary”. Three nights a week the Sisters have nocturnal adoration.
- Doors to the chapel are open from 6:00 AM to 7:00 PM daily. The gift shop is usually open from 9:30-4:00. The front office is taken care of by volunteer receptionist so it is wise to call ahead.
