Diocese of Bragança-Miranda promotes 144-hour prayer chain
The Diocesan Organizing Committee (COD) and the Diocesan Secretariat for Youth Ministry (SDPJV) of Bragança-Miranda invite the communities, groups and families of the Diocese to pray for World Youth Day (WYD) Lisbon 2023. "With and like Mary" will be a total of 144 hours - 24 hours a day - of a "creative experience of Visitation" to which everyone is invited to join, said the COD and the SDPJV.
This prayer chain will include praying the rosary, the adoration of the Blessed Sacrament and the celebration of the Eucharist. However, any form of prayer, whether communal or personal, is welcome.
In this way, all those who will not be able to be physically present at World Youth Day Lisbon 2023, by participating in this prayer chain, will be able to get involved with their spirit of unity. As shared on COD's social media, you don't have to leave the "silence of your room" to make your voice heard: this group of "prayerful volunteers" will be "a spiritual embrace on the journey we are all making with WYD".
