General Assembly
Liturgies and Prayer
Back to International Activities page Although the delegates engage in daily prayer prepared by province delegations, and in daily liturgy, prayer is woven throughout the days of the General Assembly. There is time for both personal and group reflection on each major aspect of the agenda. Several festive liturgies take place, open to the wider Congregation and incorporating the languages and traditions of our various cultures. These are: the Opening Liturgy on March 13, a St. Joseph Feast Day Liturgy on March 19, a Vesper Service on March 25, during which the new team is officially announced, and a Closing Liturgy of Thanksgiving on March 31.
