Lenten Preparation - 40 Hours Devotion - Feb 18

Prepare for the Season of Lent and make a reparation for the excesses of Mardi Gras by observing the 40 Hours Devotion at St. Francis de Sales Oratory. A plenary indulgence is available under the ordinary conditions to anyone who prays for half an hour before the Most Blessed Sacrament during the 40 Hours.

The Most Blessed Sacrament will remain exposed on the High Altar for public adoration after the opening each day. Confessions will be available before and during all masses.

His Excellency, The Most Reverend Robert Hermann, Auxiliary Bishop in St. Louis will open the 40 Hours Devotion at 10 a.m. with a Pontifical High Mass and Procession.
