Day 128: Unique Calls to Holiness (2024)
May 7th, 2024 | 16 mins 44 secs
calling, chastity, holiness, obedience, poverty, religious, secular, vocation, vows
The Lord calls everyone to live a life of surrender, and we have been looking at the various ways God calls people to grow in holiness. Religious life includes the public profession of vows of poverty, chastity, and obedience; members of secular institutes dedicate themselves to living in the world and helping to sanctify it. We also learn that those in societies of apostolic life devote themselves to a particular apostolic purpose without religious vows. These calls to holiness are gifts to the Church and the world. Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 925-933.
