The DeClausura Foundation has launched a campaign to promote prayer during the liturgical season of Lent under the motto Slow down. Detente. Now within the framework of the Year of Prayer declared by Pope Francis.
This initiative to facilitate the approach to God with the help of contemplative communities includes that a hundred convents and cloistered monasteries throughout Spain open the doors of their Churches on the third Thursday of Lent, March 7, at 7:00 p.m. hours.
It will be a special opportunity for the faithful to join in the communal prayer of various cloistered communities in almost all Spanish provinces: Poor Clares, Franciscan Conceptionists, Carmelites of the Ancient Observance, Discalced Carmelites, Augustinians, Coletines, Cistercians, Brigids, Benedictines, Canonesses, Salesas, Dominicans, Mercedarias, Jerónimas, Commanders, etc.
