Adorna thalamum tuum, Sion,
et suscipe Regem Christum:
amplectere Mariam,
quae est caelestis porta…
Adorn thy bridal chamber, O Sion,
and receive Christ the King:
embrace Mary,
who is the gate of heaven…
The Feast of the Presentation of the Lord, the Day of Consecrated Life, is for us a feast of thanksgiving for the gift of vocation and the grace of persevering in it every day.
