St. Gemma Galgani made a Holy Hour every Thursday night, in honor of our Lord’s Passion and sufferings in the Garden at Gethsemane. Concerning this Holy Hour, Gemma writes in her autobiography “[S]ometimes it would last even till 2:00 am because Jesus was with me; and nearly always He would make me share in that sorrow which He felt in the Garden at the sight of so many of my sins and those of the whole world.”
Fruits to be reaped from the Holy Hour:
1) To stamp upon one's heart the sufferings of Jesus and to often meditate upon them.
2) To excite oneself to a generous love for Jesus and to refuse Him no sacrifice.
3) To reflect that Jesus is no longer suffering upon earth, and no longer having need to loving services, has left us the afflicted in His place; wherefore He wishes that we give to our neighbor that sympathy and aid which He (to suffer the more) renounced during His Passion, being certain that He will consider as done to Himself that which we do to our brethren, "for whatever you do to others, you do to me." That this reflection will make charity increase within us.
This Holy Hour has been taken from the manual of devotions entitled "Let Us Pray" by Blessed Elena Guerra, translated by Silvio DeLuca C.P in "The Sign," Vol. 8, December 1928, and made available through the Passionist Archives of Union City, New Jersey.
