All-powerful Father,
Christ Your Son became man for us
and was presented in the temple.
May he free our hearts from sin
and bring us into your presence.
We ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ, Your Son,
who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit,
one God, for ever and ever. +Amen

Today is also the World Day of Consecrated Life! World Day for Consecrated Life was initiated by Pope John Paul II in 1997. It is an opportunity to recognize the countless and often times unexpected ways those in religious and consecrated life serve the Church through their chosen ministries and through lives of prayer. It is also a day to help parishioners learn more about the contributions those in consecrated life have made. Pray in a very special way for all of our Religious Communities that they might be faithful to their consecrations! Let's also pray for more good and holy vocations!
