| | Rosary and Eucharistic Adoration |
 | | As the practice of Eucharistic Adoration has increased recently, due to encouragement from the Holy Father and initiatives by bishops, pastors and lay associations, questions have arisen about devotions for adoration in particular, whether saying the Rosary is an appropriate form of prayer during adoration of the Blessed Sacrament. |
 | | However, among the prayers that are used during adoration, the recitation of the Rosary may certainly be included, emphasizing the Christological aspects with biblical readings relating to the mysteries, and providing time for silent adoration and meditation on them. |
 | | The current revival of Eucharistic Adoration, which has been encouraged by bishops and eagerly taken up by faithful Catholics everywhere, has again led some liturgists to raise questions concerning these devotions (for example, a recent "resolution" of the Federation of Diocesan Liturgical Commissions). |
