 New
Community Commitments
by
AJ Wagner, President of Marianist Lay Network of North
America (MLNNA)
On
April 26, 2008 two new Lay Marianist Communities, Summons
and Wellspring, will make their commitment with words
like these:
Called
by the Sprit, the breath of God, to be a member of the Summons
or Wellspring Community, we commit to saying yes
like Mary did. Like Mary, we say yes to bringing
Christ into the world as a community that builds community
responding to our Gospel call to promote peace and justice.
As
members of the global Marianist Family, we will strive
to be men and women living intentionally, strong in faith,
firm in hope and constant in love. We pledge to maintain
a family spirit characterized by hospitality, compassion,
faith, joy, service, simplicity and respect for all people.
We are grateful for this gift and willingly accept the
task of living the Marianist Charism.
Congratulations
Summons and Wellspring!
Thank-you for saying "Yes"!
