You Should Be Real Witnesses Of A World Of Doing And Acting Differently. But In Life It Is Difficult For Everything To Be Clear, Precise, Outlined Neatly. Life Is Complicated; It Consists Of Grace And Sin. He Who Does Not Sin Is Not Human. We All Make Mistakes And We Need To Recognise Our Weakness. A Religious Who Recognises Himself As Weak And A Sinner Does Not Negate The Witness That He Is Called To Give, Rather He Reinforces It, And This Is Good For Everyone. What I Expect Of You Therefore Is To Give Witness. I Want This Special Witness From Religious.

The Church Grows By Attracting, Not Proselytizing.
