1. That by our own lives and by the quality of our love in community we may give witness to the fact that Christ is alive and present in the world today.
2. For fidelity to our charism and religious vows.
3. That the Easter Season may continue to reveal the transforming power of God’s love made visible in the rising of Jesus from the dead.

FURTHER REFLECTION:

“All sectors of the Congregation are encouraged to continue the development of ‘communities of the Risen Lord’ that would enable us to share our Resurrection charism and mission with the laity, while being open to the transformative gifts that they offer us through collaboration.” (Witnesses to the Resurrection, 3)
