“We come here today with the understanding that our call to consecrated life is a gift; we have done nothing to deserve it. Let us give thanks to God for the privilege of serving him through our vocations." - Archbishop Aymond

On Saturday, Oct. 11 over 100 consecrated women and men representing over 30 religious orders ministering in the Archdiocese of New Orleans gathered to celebrate the Jubilee of Religious, one day after Pope Leo XIV welcomed nearly 20,000 religious men and women from around the world for the Vatican Celebration during this Jubilee Year. These local religious men and women celebrated their vocations and their journeys as "pilgrims of hope" this year and throughout their life times.

“In this Jubilee Year we are invited along with the whole church to be pilgrims of hope not only in this year, but in our lifetime," said Benedictine Abbott Justin Brow who was the homilist for the Mass.
