Ministries & Services

The Seven Sisters Apostolate

The Seven Sisters Apostolate, founded in St. Paul, MN, ten years ago, is called to strengthen the Church by ensuring that a Holy Hour is prayed each day of the week for the sole intention of a specific priest – a “holy wasting” (cf. Mt. 26:10) or lavishing of prayer for his deeper conformity to Christ. A Seven Sisters group begins when at least seven women respond to a call to the mission of the apostolate. This generous commitment of one hour per week of prayer is asked for a period of one year, but can remain open-ended in time as each individual discerns her call to continue.
