From Fr. Kelly: Forty Hours Devotion
Beginning at 10:00pm on Friday, April 23rd, Guardian Angel in Oran will be hosting the old and beautiful
tradition of the Forty Hours Devotion. It will conclude with the “Solemn Closing” at 4:00pm on Sunday, April
25th, accompanied by the preaching of Fr. Glenn Eftink (pastor of St. Joseph in Advance) and the organ talents of Fr. David Dohogne (Pastor of St. Henry in Charleston and St. Francis Xavier in Sikeston). Both Frs. Eftink and Dohogne are proud sons of the parish! We will also have several area priests in attendance at our Solemn Closing! What an exciting and grace-filled weekend this will be! The Forty Hours Devotion has a long and rich history in the Church. We know the sacred importance of the number ‘40’ from the Israelites forty years of wandering in the desert, and from the forty-day fasts of Moses, Elijah, and Our Lord (which is the foundation of our Lenten observance). The practice of keeping forty hours of continuous prayer finds its origin in the remembrance made by early Christians of the forty hours during which Our Lord’s body lay in the tomb after His death. During the Sacred Triduum, our Lord’s Eucharistic body lies hidden after the Holy Thursday liturgy until it finds once more its rightful place at the altar at Easter. As we celebrate this devotion during the Easter season, it shines forth as a forty-hour triumphal feast after Our Lord’s forty hours in the tomb. After the establishment of the feast of Corpus Christi with its Eucharistic Procession in 1264, following a Eucharistic Miracle, the idea soon spread of keeping this forty hour period of prayer at other times of the year with Our Lord exposed in the Most Blessed Sacrament. In the early 16th century, the city of Milan, Italy introduced the practice of keeping forty hours of adoration successively in each church of the diocese. St. Ignatius of Loyola and St. Philip Neri both adopted the observance of the Forty Hours for the reparation for sins. St. John Neumann, the fourth bishop of Philadelphia, brought this devotion to the United States. This devotion has a long-standing history at Guardian Angel Parish, though it hasn’t been done in a couple of decades. We are reviving the devotion in our parish in hopes that it will both inspire devotion to the Eucharist and prompt us to implore our Eucharistic King to bestow many graces upon our parish, our families, our country, and ourselves! I would especially like to encourage our families with children to, perhaps, pair up with another family or two to come and spend time with Jesus in adoration, even ‘splitting’ an hour with another family, if need be. As we continue to celebrate this Easter season, let us truly seek to renew and reignite our love for Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament, the most precious gift He has left to us!!! Let us observe this beautiful devotion with fervency and love! God desires to pour many graces upon us—let us give Him the opportunity to do so!! “Could you not watch one hour with me?” -Matthew 26:40
