We are called to witness to brotherhood, sisterhood and community as experiences of the Reign of God. We are called to cooperate with the Spirit in building up the one human family. We are called to remember that we can only \u201cparticipate in the act of creating when we ourselves open up to being created or re-created by the power of God\u2019s love.\u201d[3]<\/a> <\/p>\n\n\n\n
