New Horizons in Consecrated Life

Fr. Angel Ochagavia, cmf - Religious el Sun, Nov 26th 2017
With this anthology of texts the four Institutes of Consecrated Life run by the Claretian Missionaries want to offer to the English speaking public some of its practical theological reflections.

Price: £8. We hope that these reflections also serve as a stimulus to continue the task of “practical theology” of a consecrated life called to be innovative from its extraordinary tradition.
