{IN PERSON} Hodie, Non Cras: Building a Working Relationship with Saint Expedite NOW

PLEASE READ: This class is IN PERSON. TICKETS ARE NOT TRANSFERABLE.

Class fees are non transferable, we stick to the student agreements agreed upon during registration. Please ensure you are able to attend the scheduled class time.

Join Col. Welburn Kemp for an immersive class and devotional experience honoring Saint Expedite, the beloved folk saint and Roman martyr known for his swift intercession and no-nonsense clarity. This offering is designed to help you build or deepen your relationship with Saint Expedite—whether you are in desperate need of help, facing crossroads, or simply feel moved to honor the spirit who so often delivers.

We’ll explore the nature and history of Saint Expedite, including:
— Why he’s called the Patron Saint of Urgent Causes
— His roots in Roman military martyrdom and folk devotion across cultures
— Common misunderstandings, taboos, and devotional protocols
— Symbolism of the cross marked HODIE, the crow of delay (CRAS), and what he teaches us about decisiveness and divine timing
— Traditional offerings, colors, and feast day observances

Participants will receive guidance on constructing or refreshing their own Saint Expedite altar, writing petitions, and engaging in devotional practice with confidence and respect. Together, we will craft personal prayers or petitions to be placed before the community altar installed at Ritualcravt in celebration of his feast.

The class will culminate in a group Feast Day devotional prayer, led by Col. Kemp, calling in the presence of Saint Expedite for collective blessing and urgent grace. Time will be held after the session for questions, altar offerings, and individual moments of connection with the Saint.

This is a devotional working of power, presence, and praise—open to both beginners and seasoned practitioners. All are welcome who come with open hearts and earnest voices. Petition materials and red candle are included.

Hodie. Non Cras.

This class takes place during our weekend-long open Expedite altar event, see details here: https://www.ritualcravt.com/product/feast-day-altar-of-saint-expedite-april-18th-20th-2025/
