  1. As with the Church of the apostles communion among us also is established and made firm in the Holy Spirit, the same Spirit through whom we receive the Word in one faith from God the Father: the Word we contemplate with one heart, praise with one voice and in whom we share one bread and are formed into one body. In the same Word, we hold everything in common and all of us are committed to the same work of evangelisation.

  1. As the Rule tells us, the main reason why we are gathered together in community is so that we might live in harmony in the house, of one mind and heart in God. This unity achieves its full dimension beyond the convent, in the province and the entire Order.
  2. The unanimity of our life has its roots in the love of God and it ought to be a living example of universal reconciliation in Christ which we proclaim by our preaching.
