In SOLT All People Gift Themselves to the Trinity through Our Lady in Various Commitments

"That the Church may shine forth as a people made one in the unity of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit." 
(St Cyrpian in his commentary of the Our Father, quoted by Vatican II - the mystery of the Church)

The following are a collection of pictures from different vocations gifting themselves to God in different ways.  The sisters and brothers renew their temporary vows or promises to God of chastity, poverty, and obedience, which after 5 years may become perpetual.  The laity either become committed members for one year or definitive commitment to live the SOLT way of life for the rest of their lives.

Sisters renew their vows
Brothers renew their promises
Becoming a Committed Member of SOLT as a sing or married
lay family means living for one year our charism according
to your state in life
Different families enter into a SOLT lay commitment for the
first time: the Segovia's, Sena's, and the Henderson's, also
there were some new lay commitments as well
New SOLT Lay Definitive Members: Francis and Conrad
Gonzalez, and Mary Hanrahan
