On November 21st (the Memorial of the Presentation of the Virgin Mary in the Temple), the Church will celebrate World Day of Cloistered Life, an ecclesial event for all Catholics worldwide to commemorate the hidden lives of contemplative religious in cloisters and monasteries. On this day, the faithful are encouraged to reach out to the cloistered religious in their diocese, through prayer, encouragement, and material support.  Our 2026 logo features the investiture on June 27, 2026 of Sister Maria Columba of the Immaculata to the Poor Clare Monastery of Our Lady of Guadalupe in Roswell, New Mexico.
