In complete availability,
we are ready to leave our own country,
to set out or set out again
towards other peoples and other cultures,
knowing that the Spirit precedes us –
He whose gentle action is the source of evangelization
and who brings to birth in us
that same spirit He created
in the hearts of our pioneers. (SMSM Constitutions 16)
It is Mary who inspires
our way of being at the service of evangelisation.
Confident in her help,
we seek to serve like her,
humbly and discreetly,
without imposing,
in the desire that Christ be revealed,
while we ourselves remain
“hidden and as it were unknown in the world,”
so as not to impede God’s action
in those we serve. (ibid. 20)
