On this day
In order that all the powers of our heart be thus surrounded, enveloped and filled by the Spirit of Jesus, we must be dead to ourselves and everything. That is our great task, to die to ourselves.
Francis Libermann
Cf. Notes and Documents, III, 102, 1842.
Pour que toutes les puissances de notre coeur soient ainsi environnées, enveloppées et remplies de l’Esprit de Jésus, il faut que nous soyons morts à nous-mêmes et à toutes choses. C’est là notre grande besogne, mourir à nous-mêmes.
François Libermann
Cf. Notes et Documents, III, 102, 1842.
Para que todas as potências do nosso coração sejam rodeadas, envolvidas e cheias do Espírito de Jesus, é preciso que estejamos mortos para nós próprios e para todas as coisas. É essa a nossa grande tarefa, morrer para nós próprios.
Francisco Libermann

View AllWe do not come empty-handed; we bring valuable experience, talents and skills to the Congregation. As lay people, we can work with you to forge new or deeper patterns of collaboration by supporting or taking responsibility for specific Spiritan works, by initiating new areas of ministry and by bringing Spiritan spirituality to some areas of secular life which we can access more easily than our professed confreres.

Nous n'arrivons pas les mains vides ; nous apportons notre expérience, nos talents et nos savoir-faire à la Congrégation. Comme laïcs, nous pouvons élaborer avec vous de nouveaux types de collaboration, en soutenant ou en prenant la responsabilité de travaux spécifiquement spiritains, en ouvrant de nouveaux champs d'apostolat, et en apportant la spiritualité spiritaine en des zones de la vie séculière que nous pouvons approcher plus facilement que nos confrères profès.

Nós não chegamos de mãos vazias; levamos a nossa experiência, os nossos talentos e a nossa competência para a Congregação. Como leigos podemos elaborar convosco novas formas de colaboração, apoiando ou tomando a responsabilidade de trabalhos especificamente espiritanos, abrindo novos campos de apostolado, e levando a espiritualidade espiritana a zonas da vida secular que podemos atingir mais facilmente que os nossos confrades professos.
