Fiat: Women’s Discernment Night for Consecrated Life

Fiat is a series of nights for women ages 18-35 discerning consecrated life, including religious life and consecrated virginity. Following Mary’s Fiat (her “yes” to God), come learn more about the vocation of consecrated life and see how God may be calling you.

Evenings will run from 7-9 pm and will include a talk, small and large group discussion, prayer time, and time for fellowship. Topics may include the various vocations of consecrated life (Religious Institutes, Societies of Apostolic Life, Consecrated Virginity, Secular Institutes, Diocesan Hermits) and their forms (ex. contemplative vs active). We’ll also explore how to properly discern and build strong prayer lives.

These events are facilitated by members of the Servants of the Cross, the Queenship of Mary Community, and Erin Kinsella, a Consecrated Virgin within our Archdiocese. At Fiat, you’ll have a chance to connect with women living the consecrated life and others still discerning.

Your parish office is able provide you with the legal name for your own parish. However, most Archdiocesan parishes and programs can be designated in your Will as:

The Roman Catholic Episcopal Corporation of OTTAWA-CORNWALL, for the benefit of [ Specific Parish, Cemetery, Ministry or Program ] in [ Town / City ].

You may also consider the following clauses in your Will:

For your parish:

“To pay to (Legal Name of Parish) Roman Catholic Parish for its own use absolutely, the sum of (amount) dollars. I declare that the receipt of the person professing to be the Pastor or Parochial Administrator of the parish shall be sufficient discharge to my Trustee who need not see to the application thereof. I further direct that if the (Name of Parish) does not exist at the time of my death, this bequest shall be paid to the Parish’s successor, and if no such successor exists, then to an institution with similar objectives and goals.”
