4. WHAT KIND OF COMMUNION WITH “OUR” LAITY?
1. The different forms of belonging
“Charismatic families” are forming around Institutes that provide for various ways of belonging. There are “consecrated laity” with promises and codified juridical bonds. There are persons who work in our ministries, sharing the spirit of the Institute without special bonds beyond the typical business ones.
