In 1997, John Paul II called for consecrated life to be promoted throughout the Universal Church. He declared February 2, the Feast of the Presentation of the Lord, to be observed as World Day for Consecrated Life (WDCL).
In the United States, when February 2 is not on a Sunday, we celebrate on the Sunday after the Feast.
This year World Day for Consecrated Life is observed on February 8th, 2009 - Fifth Sunday in Ordinary Time, Cycle B.
Materials for Parishes of the Milwaukee Archdiocese are available for distribution in English and Spanish. You can find the materials at this:

Day for Consecrated Life Materials link.
Vocation Ministers of the Milwaukee Archdiocese will be visiting area parishes, sharing their life experiences in Consecrated Life. Visit the VMMA Calendar for more information at:
