Death
What is the most powerful means that I employ for guiding people? It is to tolerate in each one the faults that I foresee that I can do nothing about, sometimes putting up with the most uncouth, and the most unseemly manners, leaving each one in his condition, and trying to bring him to perfection in that condition.
Francis Libermann
Cf. Notes and Documents, VIII, 113, 1844.
Quel est le moyen le plus puissant que j’emploie pour les conduire ? C’est en tolérant dans chacun les défauts que je prévois ne pouvoir effacer, supportant parfois les manières d’être les plus inconvenantes, les plus grossières, laissant surtout chacun en son état, et cherchant à perfectionner chacun dans cet état.
François Libermann
Cf. Notes et Documents, VIII, 113, 1844.
Qual é o meio mais poderoso que eu emprego para os conduzir ? É tolerando em cada um os defeitos que prevejo não poder eliminar, suportando por vezes as maneiras de ser mais inconvenientes, mais grosseiras, deixando sobretudo cada um no seu estado, procurando aperfeiçoar cada um neste estado.
Francisco Libermann

The mystery of the Incarnation and Redemption is thus described as a total self-emptying which leads Christ to experience fully the human condition and to accept totally the Father's plan. This is an emptying of self which is permeated by love and expresses love. The mission follows this same path and leads to the foot of the cross. The missionary is required to "renounce himself and everything that up to this point he considered as his own, and to make himself every-thing to everyone". This he does by a poverty which sets him free for the Gospel, overcoming attachment to the people and things about him, so that he may become a brother to those to whom he is sent and thus bring them Christ the Saviour. This is the goal of missionary spirituality: "To the weak I became weak. I have become all things to all men, that I might by all means save some" (1 Cor 9:22-23).

A delegation goes to Rome for the beatification of Mère Anne-Marie Javouhey, the founder of the Sisters of St. Joseph of Cluny. Her first missionaries arrived in Guadeloupe in 1822 and she visited the island in 1828 and 1833.
Il est demandé au missionnaire de « renoncer à lui-même et à tous ce qu’il a possède jusque là, et de se faire tout à tous », dans la pauvreté qui le rend libre pour l’Evangile, dans le détachement des personnes et des biens de son milieu pour se faire le frère de ceux à qui il est envoyé et leur apporter le Christ sauveur. C’est à cela que tend la spiritualité missionnaire : « Je me suis fait faible avec les faibles… Je me suis fait tout à tous, afin d’en sauver à tout prix quelques-uns. Et tout cela, je le fais à cause de l’Evangile… » (1 Co 9, 22-23)
(Redemptoris Missio, n° 88).

Ao missionário, pede-se que “renuncie a si mesmo e a tudo aquilo que antes possuía como seu, e se faça tudo para todos”: na pobreza que o torna livre para o Evangelho, no distanciar-se de pessoas e bens do seu ambiente originário para se fazer irmão daqueles a quem é enviado, levando-lhes Cristo salvador. A espiritualidade do missionário conduz a isto: “com os fracos fiz-me fraco... Fiz-me tudo para todos, para salvar alguns a todo o custo. Tudo faço pelo Evangelho... “ (I Cor 9, 22-23).
