a)      Revitalizing our charism.

The processes for refounding will not be successfully carried out un-less we modify, redirect, and even withdraw from some of the works that we are running today. To me, it seems necessary to initiate other projects that invite and encourage us to live plainer, simpler lives, close to the poor and youth on the margins of society.

What I am proposing will require pastoral care and administrative support coming from the Pro-vincial and his Council, and also a deeper awareness on the part of the Province community. It in-volves motivating ourselves, discerning the realities of our situation, and mutually coming to grips with challenges that at first may make us feel insecure and uneasy. However I am convinced that in the heart of hearts of most Brothers there are riches that are longing to be released.
