Seven Sisters Apostolate
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. Mt. 26:10) or lavishing of prayer for his deeper conformity to Christ.
Each member commits to a Holy Hour on a distinct day of the week, for the pastor (Fr. Campbell) or associate pastor (Fr. McDermott) assigned to her. The commitment is to that day; the Seven Sister may pray at any time on that day. If she is unable to offer her Holy Hour, she is to secure a substitute.
Interested in being a committed Seven Sister or a substitute?
