Join Us for 40-Hours Eucharistic Devotions

Friday Nov 21st - Sunday Nov. 23rd

Devotional Liturgies

Fri, Nov. 21 – 5:00 PM: Evening Prayer w/ Benediction

Sat, Nov. 22 – 7:30 PM: Evening Prayer w/ Benediction

Sun, Nov. 23 – 5:00 PM: Solemn Closing of 40-Hours w/Eucharistic Procession

The 40 Hours Devotion is a Catholic liturgical practice of continuous prayer before the Blessed Sacrament in solemn exposition, lasting approximately 40 hours. It is a time for prayer, adoration, and reparation, inspired by Biblical events like Jesus' 40 days in the desert and His 40 hours in the tomb. Parish communities organize these events, often inviting the faithful to sign up for an hour of adoration or to come and pray at any time. Each evening includes Evening Prayer with a reflection by a guest Priest and Benediction
of the Blessed Sacrament.

 

Sign up at church for a time of prayer with our Lord, Friday 5PM - 11PM, Saturday 9AM - 11PM,
Sunday 12PM - 5PM, or come any time that works for you. ~ Let's fill the church!
