Feast of Consecrated Life
On February 2, the liturgy celebrated the Fest of the Presentation of Jesus in the temple of Jerusalem by Mary and Joseph: “they offered him to the Lord." This same date was chosen by the Catholic Church to celebrate the Consecrated Life. Therefore, the community of Adiapodoumé, accompanied by some parishioners who had come for the occasion, celebrated this feast with joy and gratitude.
The celebration started with the candlelight procession, symbol of the light of Christ. This was followed by the Eucharist presided over by Fr. Jean Paul Kissi SCJ, Superior of the formation community.
During the homily, Fr Jean-Paul reflected on the importance of consecrated life in the mission of the Church. He also invited all the consecrated persons to live with joy, despite the limitations.
Finally, he invited the Christian faithful to encourage and support vocations in general and vocations to the religious life in particular.
