Students and young professionals discover the consecrated life

The Lille community is involved in vocation promotion in Lille. Religious and students from the Foyer took part in the diocesan consecrated life evening at the end of January. The event presented the formation program and the fundamentals of religious life to a gathering of students and young professionals.

The round table brought together two nuns (a Salesian and a Franciscan Missionary of Mary) and two religious (a Dominican and an Assumptionist). They discovered they had one thing in common: their discernment was rooted in a long period of cooperation abroad (Philippines, Jerusalem, Ivory Coast…).
They also emphasized the importance of spiritual guidance in their journey. Small sharing groups enabled further exchanges of experience.

It’s an opportunity for us to show you this year’s community: 7 religious and 9 students. A sign that our presence in the student world continues.
