“Always give thanks to God for\u00a0his favours; and may your gratitude
\nand piety strongly incite Him\u00a0to keep on lavishing upon your …
\nsociety all the graces it needs\u00a0to fulfill …
\nthe work to which\u00a0it is called”.
\n(Gabriel Deshayes)<\/p>\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
“Each of you will receive a copy of the\u00a0new Rule.
\nRead and reread it often, each time renewing\u00a0from the bottom of your heart
\nthe firm resolution to observe it faithfully\u00a0as long as you live”.
\n(Jean-Marie de la Mennais)<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
