Holy Hours for the Ordinandi

Please check back soon for 2023 information.

Please join us in praying before the Most Blessed Sacrament for the men who will be ordained priests on June 17 at the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception. We also ask your prayers for an increase in vocations to the priesthood and religious life in The Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Washington.
