BELOIT, Kan., June 16, 2025 /Standard Newswire/ --  Adoratio Foundation has launched a Eucharistic Adoration Photo Contest inviting individuals to capture and share the beauty and reverence of Eucharistic Adoration.

Photographers of all experience levels are encouraged to submit images. This could include photos such as Eucharistic Adoration chapels, Eucharistic processions, or other personal moments of prayerful Eucharistic devotion. The submission deadline is Friday, July 18, 2025.

This contest is an opportunity to illustrate the sacred stillness and beauty of Eucharistic Adoration. Each photo can reveal a story of faith. The goal is to inspire others to spend time with Jesus in the Eucharist and to see how He is present in our daily lives. We look forward to experiencing the beauty of Eucharistic adoration through the entrants' eyes.

The first-place winner will receive $1,000, second place $500, and third place $100. Winning photographs will be featured in Adoratio Foundation publications and social media platforms. Participants may submit their photos at https://www.starsofpeace.org/photo-contest.

“This contest is about more than photography—it’s about witnessing the quiet power of Christ in the Eucharist,” said Andrew Niewald, President of Adoratio Foundation. “Through this contest we invite the world to see the beauty of Eucharistic Adoration and encourage more individuals to spend time with Christ in the Eucharist.”

Adoratio Foundation, in collaboration with the Poland-based Comunità Regina della Pace, is a Catholic nonprofit responsible for the Stars of Peace Eucharistic Adoration Movement in the United States.

Plans are 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 designed to dramatically increase Eucharistic adoration participation in parishes.  Adoratio works with these dioceses and parishes, coaching them through intentional and strategic campaigns that empower them to intentionally prioritize Eucharistic devotion.
