Looking for Light in the New Year
As women religious in the Church we are called to listen silently to the Word, and respond to it in faith and in complete openness to the Spirit. In our calling as joyful witnesses and bearers of the Word, we attempt to penetrate the darkness with the light of Christ, to nurture the Christ life within others, and to make a home for the Word in the hearts of the oppressed. (Constitution of the Sisters of the Living Word, Spirituality, p vi)
