Church consecration festival of the Admont Abbey Church

Celebration of the church festival at Admont Abbey 

 

On Sunday, 28 September, the consecration of the abbey church was celebrated in Admont Abbey Church - a special day in the cycle of the year on which the consecration of the church as a house of God is solemnly commemorated. Numerous believers came together in a festive Holy Mass to honour the spiritual centre of the abbey and the parish community. The church consecration festival is a reminder of the importance of the church as a place of encounter with God, a place of prayer, silence and community. 

 

With its festive music and liturgy, the Holy Mass was an expression of gratitude for the history and spiritual work of the abbey church - a place that has accompanied people on their journey of faith for centuries.

The church consecration festival is therefore not only a look back at the consecration of the collegiate church, but also a look forward: to a church that remains alive through prayer, togetherness and trust in God's presence in our midst.
