Lenten 40 Hours Devotion

at Moreau Seminary

Feb 14 - 16, 2023

Begin the Lenten season and live the Eucharistic Revival in Adoration & Worship with the Men of Moreau Seminary.

The 40 Hours Devotion, a revered tradition for nearly two centuries in the United States, calls believers to a transformative renewal in the Real Presence of Christ over three days. The Moreau Seminary community is engaging in this practice as a part of the Eucharistic Revival and as an entrance into the Lenten Season.   


Please join us for our three evening Holy Hours that together we may enter well this Lenten journey and purify our hearts for the Easter mysteries.

The Saint Hildegard Project

Following the exhortation of the Second Vatican Council that "the treasure of sacred music is to be preserved and fostered with great care" (Sacrosanctum Concilium, no. 114), the Saint Hildegard Project seeks to renew the public prayer of Christ's Church through performance, education, and musical enrichment at both the parochial and diocesan level.
