The Fraternity Charter
Today, like yesterday, the Fraternity is a place for listening and speaking that enables all, individually :
- to be welcomed as they are and to express themselves freely;
- to be called by their name, with respect, the right to be differnt and
- to be fragile;
- to feel less alone in a society that excludes, journeying and advancing together in mutual support;
- to work at developing fellowship and solidarity in their family life, in their workplace, in their neighbourhood so as to construct a more just and human world together;
- to discover, gradually, Jesus Christ, the centre of the Fraternity;
- to recognise him from the life of each one, from the Word of God
- and prayer shared together.
The basis of the Fraternity is this word of Christ:
’My commandment is that you love one another.’
The Fraternities, going beyond borders, form a big family.
