Seven Churches Bus Tour on Holy Thursday
Seven Churches Bus Tour on Holy Thursday

At the end of the Holy Thursday Mass, the Eucharist is placed on a temporary “altar of repose” away from the sanctuary. It is customary for the faithful to process together to this altar and spend time in quiet prayer and adoration. In the Roman Missal, it states: “The faithful are invited to continue adoration before the Blessed Sacrament for a suitable length of time during the night, according to circumstance.”

The Seven Churches Visitation is a tradition that grew out of this time of prayer and adoration.

Find out more about how you can join on Holy Thursday, beginning at 8:30pm…
