Ongoing Formation is an indispensable condition for sustaining oneself. Our Constitutions emphasize that: “Ongoing formation is an integral part of our daily lives. It demands a deepening of our spiritual life, an updating of our missionary attitudes and regular study… Each one of us carries the primary responsibility for his own ongoing formation” (Const., Art. 78). Let us also remember these words from Paul to Timothy: “I remind you to stir into flame the gift of god that you have through the imposition of my hands” (2 Tim. 1:6).
