In solidarity with the Sisters of St. Francis of Mary Immaculate, we commit ourselves through relationship to living more fully the mystery of community where we, as Associates, through separated by time, space and lifestyles, are drawn together through prayer and bound together through mutual support. As baptized Christians, we commit ourselves to rebuild the Church in the image of Jesus, and to discover the presence of the Spirit in the world. Rejoicing in the Franciscan Clarean charism which strengthens and encourages us, we commit ourselves to deepen and celebrate our faith and to enflesh the ideals of the Gospel and the spiritualities of Francis and Clare among our families, friends and all those with whom we interact daily. As associates with and for the poor and oppressed, wherever they may be, we commit ourselves to work for peace, justice and the integrity of creation. |
