Annual Vocation Celebrations

World Day for Consecrated Life February 7, 2010

In 1997, John Paul II called for consecrated life to be promoted throughout the Universal Church. He declared February 2, the Feast of the Presentation of the Lord, to be observed as World Day for Consecrated Life (WDCL). In the United States, when February 2 is not on a Sunday, we celebrate on the Sunday after the Feast.

This year World Day for Consecrated Life is observed on February 7th, Fifth Sunday in Ordinary Time, Cycle C. VMMA Members will be speaking at various parishes.
