Motto

The motto of Caritas Secular Institute is “To follow the truth in a spirit of charity” (Eph. 4:15). In their lives and actions they are to follow closely Jesus, who is the truth (Jn. 14:6) and to love Him with a total and undivided heart (Jn. 21:15). In so loving Him they are also to love those who are in the world to the very end, as He did love them (Jn. 13:1). Through their charity, especially towards the suffering humanity, they have to witness to the most fundamental truth of God being the Father of all as well as to that of the human being our brothers and sisters (1 Cor. 12:27), in the body of Jesus through the event of Incarnation. As members of Caritas Secular Institute particularly dedicated to the practice and profession of charity, they are to have their roots and foundation in the love of Christ (Rom. 8:35), so as to constantly endeavour make others relish the breadth, length, height and depth of His love (Eph. 3:17).
