The Archdiocese of Armagh will be celebrating the World Day for
Consecrated Life with Solemn Vespers in Saint Patrick’s Cathedral,
Armagh on Thursday 2 February.
In 1997, Pope Saint John Paul II instituted a day of prayer for women
and men in consecrated life.
This celebration is attached to the Feast
of the Presentation of the Lord which falls on 2 February.
The World Day
for Consecrated Life is an opportunity to pray for all those women and
men in consecrated life who have given their lives in love to God.
As part of the evening, Archbishop Eamon Martin will launch a special
prayer initiative in the diocese and all prayer groups in the diocese
are invited to join for what promises to be a very special celebration
of consecrated life.
