Celebrating the Year for Consecrated Life 2015

Celebrating the Year of Consecrated Life Almost two hundred religious from the diocese of Arundel and Brighton gathered in Worth Abbey to celebrate Consecrated Life.  It was a particularly significant celebration as this year has been named by Pope Francis as the Year for Consecrated Life.    FMDM Sisters from Ladywell Convent – Godalming, Ferring and Wonersh travelled via coach to Worth Abbey for this great occasion.

Archbishop Peter Smith reminded those present of their call to bring the Good News to all, to live prophetic lives and to be joyful in following Christ in today’s world. He expressed his deep gratitude for the life and ministry of Religious men and women throughout the 50 years since the diocese was created. Following the Eucharist we all enjoyed a celebratory lunch.
