Life of St. Walburga - Part IV


St. Walburga Makes Her Profession at Wimborne

Certainly Walburga took vows; probably she did so at Wimborne. She promised solemnly to obey her abbess and to be deeply rooted in a life of singing God’s praises seven times a day and of showing in her conduct that she preferred nothing to the love of Christ.

Let us pray that the Lord may call many to the priesthood and religious life in today’s Church.
