Full Question
Description:I would like to make a private vow of virginity before making my Consecration [of] Virginity vows and was wondering if there are any private vow prayers that are already written out that I can pray. And what would you suggest of what one can do to live their private vows? Thank You and God Bless You! Consecrated virgins do publically state their resolution to persevere in a life of perpetual virginity this occurs twice in the Rite of Consecration: A consecrated virgin is consecrated passively by an action of the Church, much in the same way as a Church building is passively consecrated.
