Holy Hour to Pray for Safe and Just Care of Migrants

Holy Hour at Cathedral Basilica to Pray for Migrants

By CatholicPhilly Staff • Posted November 3, 2025

All faithful are invited to gather at the Cathedral Basilica of Saints Peter and Paul in Philadelphia for a Holy Hour of prayer at 5:30 p.m. on Sunday, Nov. 16 dedicated to the safe and just care of migrants.

The power of prayer is strengthened in community, and all are encouraged to lift their voices and hearts in prayer for migrants seeking refuge and compassion. In addition, the Sacrament of Penance and Reconciliation will be offered during this time, providing an opportunity for spiritual healing.
