y eyes have seen salvation.

On this day, 40 after Christmas, we remember the presentation of the child Jesus in the Temple by his parents according to the law of Moses as prescribed in today's gospel. Jesus, the Savior and light of humanity comes to meet us. Let us open our hearts and our lives to him

Today, candles are blessed and carried in procession as a sign of our welcoming of Christ the Light into our lives. As Christians, we are the light of the world.

It is also a special day in the Church calendar when the Church prays for the Consecrated Life – a life that is dedicated to God through prayer and service and which enriches and rejoices the Christian community.

We also pray to God to help people hear and respond to his call and thus consecrate themselves to the Lord, Savior and light of men.

Happy Feast of Consecrated Life!
