FURTHER REFLECTION:

“Since all the ideals of religious life, as outlined in the Constitutions, come into focus in the local community, it is important that the members of the local community enter into a never-ending process of conversion to promote and foster growth in these ideals.” (Provincial Statutes, 49a)
