Day 2: Marriage and consecration
Day 2 attends to Cecilia's marriage to Valerian and her private vow of virginity.
Vocation within marriage
Cecilia had taken a vow of virginity before her parents arranged her marriage. On the wedding night she told Valerian of the vow; he agreed and was converted to the Catholic faith.
Prayer
Saint Cecilia, intercede for spouses today who seek to live faithfully their Catholic vocation. Amen.
Conclude with one Our Father, one Hail Mary, and one Glory Be.
