If we had powerful means at hand, we would not accomplish much good. Now that we are nothing, that we have nothing and are worth nothing, we can form great projects, because or hopes are not founded on ourselves but on him who is all powerful.
Francis Libermann
Cf. Notes and Documents, IV, 303, 1843.
Si nous avions des moyens puissants en mains, nous ne ferions pas grand-chose de bon. Maintenant que nous ne sommes rien, que nous ne pouvons rien et ne valons rien, nous pouvons former de grands projets, parce que les espérances ne sont pas fondées sur nous mais sur celui qui est tout-puissant.
François Libermann
Cf. Notes et Documents, IV, 303, 1843.
Se tivéssemos nas mãos meios poderosos, não faríamos grande coisa de bom. Mas como não somos nada, não possuímos nada e não valemos nada, podemos formar grandes projetos, porque as esperanças não estão fundadas em nós mas naquele que é todo poderoso.
Francisco Libermann
Cf. Notas e Documentos, IV, 303, 1843.

View AllAfter an attentive study of the document, the Congregation for Religious and Secular Institutes recognises that this Rule of Life commits Spiritans to respond to the needs of evangelisation in their time, in living fidelity to the charisms of their founders, Claude Poullart des Places and François Libermann. The preaching of the Good News, the practice of the evangelical counsels and life in fraternal and praying community are the three essential elements that give their apostolic life both its basis and unity. They participate in the Church's mission, according to their proper vocation, by evangelising the poor, going more especially to those who have not yet heard the Gospel message and to those whose needs are greatest.
