Heartfelt
congratulations to Emily Byers, who was solemnly consecrated to a life of
virginity last month in the diocese of Lafayette, Louisiana on June 16, the
feast of the Immaculate Heart of Mary.
Emily
is now the youngest consecrated virgin in the United States. Please remember
her especially in your prayers as she begins her consecrated life. (You might
also head over to her blog, “By Love Alone,” to wish her well—and to ask her to
post more pictures!)
