    Quiet Prayer in the Presence of the Relics

The Rite of Dedication encourages the ancient practice of keeping vigil in the presence of the relics of the saints who will be placed in the altar. In the Vigil, we pray the Psalms and Scripture readings associated with the Martyrs, calling on their intercession for us. Tonight, on the eve of our dedication, we ask the intercession of St. Victorian and companions, North African martyrs from the 400s who laid down their lives for Christ in one of many persecutions of that era.
