The Seven Sisters Apostolate is a call to strengthen the Church by ensuring that a Holy Hour is prayed each day of the week for the sole intention of a specific priest or bishop—a “holy wasting” (cf.

The holy hour can be before any Tabernacle for a set day of each week, for one year, beginning in August. Click to find out more, and Contact Melissa Wexler: 706-537-8742 [email protected].
