      A 40 Hours Devotion is a continuous period of prayer and adoration before the Blessed Sacrament that lasts for roughly 40 hours. This is a special Catholic devotion that involves a parish coming together for an extended time of prayer, contemplation, talks, and Mass. It is seen as a time for a parish to come together for a deep spiritual experience and is a powerful expression of faith.
