Well done 23 Catholic single ladies who travelled to Tyburn Convent in London on 13 April to
attend a day of vocational discernment led by Fr de Malleray. The day consisted
of three conferences, on holy Matrimony, on religious life and on the
difference between contemplative and apostolic vocations; plus holy Mass,
picnic in Hyde Park and litany of Our Lady prayed at the Tyburn Tree where many
Catholic martyrs had died for the faith; and also a testimony by one of
the Tyburn nuns.
Please pray for a strong revival of religious life across these Isles, and for
the young ladies and young men who have recently answered the call, or prepare
to do so.
