There is no vocation more religious than work. A Catholic layman or laywoman is someone who takes work seriously. Only Christianity has given a religious meaning to work and recognizes the spiritual value of technological progress.

Your institution has as its aim the sanctification of one's life, while remaining in the world at one's place of work and profession: to live the Gospel in the world, while living immersed in the world, but in order to transform it and to redeem it with one's personal love for Christ. This is truly a great ideal.
