“…these brothers and sisters create communities of profound prayer, energetic mission, spiritual support, and prophetic challenge for the Church. By personal sacrifice and the gift of themselves, they create oases of peace and presence, retreat and recollection, conversion and personal transformation. They are a sign of the Kingdom of God present here and now.”
