Holy Hour (Latin: hora sancta) is the Roman Catholic devotional tradition of spending an hour in prayer and meditation on the agony of Jesus Christ in the garden of Gethsemane, or in Eucharistic adoration in the presence of the Blessed Sacrament.[1][2][3] A plenary indulgence is granted for this practice.[4] The practice is also observed in some Lutheran churches and some Anglican churches.[5]
