CONSECRATION
What
does it mean when we say that we are
consecrated?
It
means that we are aware of having been chosen by God and made His through baptism. By this
we accept to live according to His call and we say yes to His will even before we are
asked to do it. Because of this we make the vows of poverty, chastity in celibacy and obedience. These vows are the peculiar
tools of a special consecration, accepted and cared for by the Catholic Church. Because of
this consecration we are inserted very deeply into the life of the Church and we share its
evangelising mission. Our entire life is consequently devoted to the very mission of the
Church.
