Religious practices, prayers, or rituals that show dedication to God or a spiritual belief; plural of devotion.
Plural of 'devotion' from Latin 'devotio' (vow, dedication). In Christian tradition, 'devotions' specifically refers to private or group prayers and spiritual exercises distinct from formal worship services.
Historically, 'devotions' were how ordinary people without formal education could connect to God—rosary devotions, station devotions, saint devotions—creating a massive parallel religious world underneath official church hierarchy.
