Welcome Message from the Founder of COTE

It gives me great pleasure to welcome you to the COTE website. We are the ‘Children of the Eucharist’ (COTE) Apostolate, a group of lay catholic people, set-up under the auspices of the Apostolate of Eucharistic Adoration in Ireland.

Testimonials

Pope Francis tells us that “to be friends with God is to pray with simplicity, like children”. The prayer of children before Eucharistic Adoration is a wonderful example of what the Holy Father intends.

His Excellency Bishop Michael Smith, Diocese of Meath

Testimonials from Priests

We are delighted with such a gift for our Primary four children. They have benefited so much from your presence and bringing Christ's presence into the classroom in a very special way.

V. Rev. Canon Francis Brown Adm., Newry Cathedral, Co. Down

Testimonials from Religious Sisters

The COTE programme helps the children to develop a personal relationship with Jesus in the Eucharist. Their faith helps them to believe that Jesus is really present. He loves them so much and He is their best friend.

Sr. Briedge I.B.V.M., Loreto Convent Dalkey, Co. Dublin.

Testimonials from School Principals

Eucharistic Adoration gives children an opportunity to connect with Jesus in a real and meaningful way. I see the children speak openly to Him.

Bernie McDonald, Kentstown N.S., Co. Meath

Testimonials from Teachers

Through COTE, I feel Jesus is opening a door, inviting His little ones in and showing them His heart and His divine love for his children.

Testimonials from Volunteers and Mothers

Children's adoration touched my heart the first time I saw it take place in Knock. It was so beautiful to see these young souls adoring Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament.
