That, by our vows of poverty, chastity and obedience, we may dedicate and consecrate ourselves totally to the Risen Christ in the religious life. (Art.13)
For a spirit of reconciliation in our personal lives, in community relationships, carrying over into our ministry and shared with the faithful we serve.
(There is) an excessive preoccupation with self and a desire to be praised; undertaking great works, while neglecting lesser responsibilities... (Confession Notes, Paris, 6/15/1835)
