"We ourselves have known and
put our faith in God's love for ourselves.
God is love, and anyone who lives in
love lives in God, and God lives in him. "

(1 John 4:16)

"...in the concreteness
of the modern world,
and in most intimate and constant contact
with its problems, Christians at large,
and the members of secular Institutes
in particular, bring to the common effort
their specific contribution of charity.
This charity heals
and uplifts human values
as the fecund fruit
of baptismal consecration
and the specific secular consecration,
revealing to humankind
the love with which
God so loved the world".
