Life in community
The fraternal life is a fundamental element of the spiritual path of consecrated persons so that they may renew themselves constantly and fulfil fully their mission in the world… To the consecrated persons is addressed the exhortation to cultivate with zeal the fraternal life according to the example of the first Christians of Jerusalem. (Vita consecrata 45)
"I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another." (Jn 13,34)
