Death
Live together in union and in the most perfect peace of charity, support one another mutually, put up with your faults, ease your mutual troubles, comfort your confreres, do not judge them, love them, and be gentle towards them, even when they happen to annoy you.
Francis Libermann
Cf. Spiritual Letters, IV, 458, 1847.
Vivez ensemble dans l’union et la paix de la charité la plus parfaite, supportez-vous mutuellement les uns les autres, supportez vos défauts, adoucissez vos peines mutuelles, soulagez vos confrères, ne les jugez pas, aimez-les, et soyez doux à leur égard, même quand il leur arrive de vous causer du chagrin.
François Libermann
Cf. Lettres Spirituelles, IV, 458, 1847.
Vivei juntos na união, na paz e na mais perfeita caridade, suportai-vos mutuamente, suportai os vossos defeitos, suavizai os sofrimentos uns dos outros, aliviai os vossos confrades, não os julgueis, amai-os, sede pacientes com eles, mesmo quando acontece que vos causam tristeza.
Francisco Libermann
Cf. Cartas Espirituais, IV, 458, 1847.

The older Provinces are realising that Spiritan mission is also in their own back yard, so, for example, they are taking on commitments in the service of immigrants, refugees and young people. They take part in action for the support and defence of the poor. These undertakings can show people what Spiritan mission is all about and attract vocations (professed and lay associates) more easily than stories about our work in far off lands.

1968 Switzerland
The Vice-Province of Switzerland becomes an independent Province on its own. The first Provincial is Père Fernand Bussard.
Les anciennes Provinces prennent conscience que la mission spiritaine est aussi chez elles et elles prennent des engagements, par exemple au service des immigrés et réfugiés ou auprès de la jeunesse. Elles participent aussi à des actions plus larges de soutien et défense des pauvres. Ces engagements peuvent témoigner de la mission spiritaine et susciter des vocations - de profès ou de laïcs associés - plus facilement que les récits sur des engagements au-delà des mers.

As antigas Províncias estão conscientes que a missão espiritana lhes compete também e tomam compromissos, por exemplo no serviço dos imigrantes e refugiados ou junto da juventude. Participam também em actividades mais vastas de apoio e defesa dos pobres. Estes compromissos podem dar testemunho da missão espiritana e mais facilmente suscitar vocações – de professos ou leigos associados – do que os relatos sobre compromissos longínquos.
