THE YEAR OF CONSECRATED LIFE
began on the first Sunday of Advent 2014 and continues until February 2nd 2016. The Year calls us to look to the past with gratitude, to live the present with passion and to embrace the future with hope.

'I am counting on you "to wake up the world", since the distinctive sign of consecrated life is prophecy.' (Pope Francis)

Much of this website demonstrates how we RSCJ live our consecration, and our call to make known God's love, in the everyday. The articles on this page are about specific events and reflections related to the year.
