Vows of chastity mark two Brooklyn consecrations
Two Brooklyn women, Daisy Scannapiece and Janette Romero, were consecrated as lay consecrated virgins by Bishop Thomas Daily on January 28. The vow, revived by Pope Paul VI in 1970, involves daily prayer and lay ministry while remaining in the world. Both women will wear gold bands and continue parish life, teaching Sunday school and guiding youth through Catholic ministries.
