I : Revivify the call received,
II : Receive the world with goodness and passion
III : Seek to understand the world where we live and truly love it,
IV : Be a crucible of consecration in the world
V : Be anchored within a solid body
VI : Find the words to say what gives us life

Widows or celibate, we know well the first movement which started us on the journey: the very charity of Christ. We cannot keep this gift given to us to ourselves. We want to share with others the joy we have to be given to Christ. To find the words to speak about what gives us life is vital. For the person who is expressing it, it is an occasion to revivify the call received; for the person who is listening it is perhaps an occasion to hear the call of the Lord.

It is the service of the call. It will be the blooming of a life given, clear in its own convictions, capable of giving an account humbly and passionately of the hope which animates it, the breath of the Spirit which it brings, capable like Mary in the Magnificat of singing its thanksgiving to He who has done marvels for us.

ORIENTATIONS VI

• Together we would like to deepen the specifics of our vocation in the Institute in the heart of the Cor Unum Family.
• We will take the necessary means to develop our capacity to speak about what gives us life in a language that can be understood by the world of today.
