Quarant’ore at Salford Cathedral
Salford Cathedral, 250 Chapel St, Salford M3 5LEMonday 13th June 2022
10:00am-19:45pm, Mon 13 - Fri 17 June
From Monday 13 – Friday 17 June, Salford Cathedral will host Quarant’ore, an ancient Church practice, consisting of Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament for 40 hours. The Sacrament will be exposed and there will be adoration throughout the day. The cathedral will be open to all who want to spend some prayerful time with the Lord.
Quarant’ore stretches back beyond written memory – in the 1500s, St Charles Borromeo explained that the practice was ancient, and that the 40 hours referred to the time Christ’s body laid in the tomb.
