World Day of Consecrated Life
February 4, 2007
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 Presentation. This year WDCL is
observed on February 4, the Fifth Sunday of the Year.
The resources below are to assist you in your local
celebration of World Day for Consecrated Life. May
these resources provide you with ideas to create a meaningful
celebration in your parish!
