"God So Loved The World - Ministerial Religious Life in 2009"
Sandra M. Schneiders, IHM

The Leadership Council invited me to speak about "vowed Religious Life" following an earlier and complementary presentation on the subject of Associates. In a sense, this is a bit like talking about "wet water" because the terms "vowed" and "Religious Life" are mutually implicating though not co-extensive. As all water is wet but not all wet things are water, so all Religious Life is vowed life but not all vowed life is Religious Life. Furthermore, there are many forms of vowed Religious Life such as monastic, mendicant or apostolic and much that applies to one does not apply to another.  More>>
