Conclusion: Authenticity.


Finally, authenticity produces happiness in the life of the Christian and the consecrated person, mediocrity leads to the corruption of good, and worldliness is dangerous for our consecrated life. All this contributes to living and sharing the joy of the Gospel in the task of vocational animation.

  

Fruitful religious.

 

  • Rooted in God. The contemplative encounter with God transforms us and makes us fruitful as a free offer of spirituality.
  • Fraternal, communitarian and affective. Sincere affection and the gift of life give us serenity of spirit.
  • On the frontier: incarnated. Free from secularization and relativism, we commit ourselves to human realities in order to enlighten them with faith and a desire for the infinite.
  • Free, joyful, gratuitous and close. We are profoundly and responsibly free people who are happy to share our lives freely from our closeness[1].


 Authentic Brothers.

 

“The members of the Institute are all Brothers and use this name. They are called to be brothers of Christ, brothers among them, brothers of every man, by the testimony of Christ’s charity towards all, especially the least and the neediest; brothers to improve brotherhood in the Church itself [2]”.

 

- Close to the lay Jesus, to our religious community and to the people[3].

- Expert guides of spiritual life who accompany, help and share.

- Inserted in the People of God, in the local Church and in humanity.

- We integrate in our person laicism and sacredness, thus uniting the profane and the sacred.

- We are a sign of God's presence in secular realities (culture, science, human health, the world of work, care of the weak and disadvantaged) by taking on ecclesial ministries.  

- We develop fraternal communion in common life by living the Lord's new commandment and projecting it into our relationships outside the community.

- We share the charism with other lay believers by being a living memory of the founder and by contributing to the building up of the Church, to the good of mankind and to the satisfaction of the needs of the world.

- We are prophets of hospitality, of the meaning of life, of the care and defense of life and creation, of the wise use of new technologies[4].
