Availability for any ministry assignment


The man who is not in this state of availability, but in the contrary one, is in a devilish state. In order to keep the vow of obedience we’ve taken, we must be in a state of openness to God’s Will regarding all things... to go to the country, if he’s sent there; to stay at home, if that’s what’s desired of him; to direct a seminary or go to give a mission; to remain in this house or another; to go to foreign lands or not; to obey this Superior or another, since God wills it. (30 August 1658; SV XII, 44-45)
