All are welcome!
All Holy Hours are from 7 p.m. to 8 p.m.
Bishop Robert Gruss is encouraging the faithful to join him in a Holy Hour for vocations. He’ll be in two parishes across the diocese each month.
Bishop Gruss will be bringing with him a relic of St. John Vianney, the patron saint of parish priests, for veneration (learn more about what veneration means here: https://saginaw.org/veneration).
The intention of the Holy Hours is to increase vocations to the priesthood and consecrated life within our Diocese, and at the same time deepen our own love for Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament.
"We come before the Lord, present in the Blessed Sacrament, and beg him to open the hearts of men whom he is calling to the priesthood and the diaconate and the hearts of women whom he is calling to consecrated life," said Bishop Gruss during a recent Holy Hour.
The topic for this Holy Hour talk will be: Jubilee Year of Hope and the 1700 anniversary of the the Council of Nicaea
Bishop Gruss has designated Pilgrimage Churches throughout the Diocese of Saginaw for the Jubilee Year of Hope which may be visited by many who wish to make a confession and attend Mass to receive the Plenary Indulgence. The location of these churches are where he will offer a Holy Hour for Vocations each month and may be found at https://saginaw.org/holy-hours-vocations. The Extraordinary Jubilee Year of Hope began in the Diocese of Saginaw on December 29, 2024 on the Feast of the Holy Family and ends December 28, 2025 on the Feast of the Holy Family.
A listing of upcoming Holy Hours may be found at https://saginaw.org/holy-hours-vocations. The faithful are encouraged to join Bishop Gruss when he visits their parish and/or make a pilgrimage to other parishes.
