BELOIT, Kan., May 15, 2025 /Standard Newswire/ -- Adoratio Foundation, in partnership with Comunità Regina della Pace, has launched a bold initiative to offer one million Eucharistic adoration Holy Hours for Pope Leo XIV. This spiritual campaign invites Catholics to pledge Eucharistic adoration hours on behalf of the newly elected Holy Father, culminating in a spiritual bouquet to be presented on the Feast of the Assumption, Friday, August 15, 2025.

Participants can pledge their Holy Hours at www.starsofpeace.org/popeleo. The total number of hours offered will be shared with Pope Leo as a unified gesture of love, support and spiritual solidarity.

“Leading the world’s 1.4 billion Catholics is such a tremendous responsibility,” said Andrew Niewald, President of Adoratio Foundation and Comunità Regina della Pace board member. “Offering prayers before the Blessed Sacrament for our new Holy Father is one of the most powerful ways we can support him as he begins his pontificate.”

Adoratio Foundation, in collaboration with Comunità Regina della Pace (Community of the Queen of Peace), is a Catholic apostolate dedicated to fostering Eucharistic devotion. Plans are currently underway to bring the 9th Star in the Crown of Our Lady, Queen of Peace, Eucharistic shrine to North America in Beloit, Kansas. This Eucharistic shrine, museum and perpetual Eucharistic adoration chapel, located just 50 miles from the geographic center of the United States, will serve as an icon for a greater Eucharistic adoration movement.

In addition, the Foundation is actively collaborating with 89 parishes across four United States dioceses launching “Stars of Peace Spiritual Campaigns” to ignite or expand Eucharistic adoration within each of the parishes. These initiatives highlight the Church’s most accessible and transformative form of evangelization – adoration of the Blessed Sacrament.

“Through this outpouring of prayer and devotion, we are confident that abundant grace will flow to Pope Leo XIV and to the entire Church,” added Niewald. “It is our prayer that this effort deepens the world’s love for Christ in the Eucharist.”
