Poem: Lace Makers to Care Takers
Hear you, O descendants of lace-makers
Don’t you realize, you! O great care-takers?
What’s your vision, what’s your mission?
Forget not, communion is your charism
A total double union with self, with others
With God, and with creation is what matters
Every day, every life is mingled in this mystery
By your life let’s add to this great history
Humility, simplicity, hiddenness, and charity
Let your intentions be polished in purity
Magis, enlarge your tent, Incarnate with Joy
Keywords to live the kingdom alloy
Maxims, Constitution, Eucharistic Letter and Little Plan
To lead a life worthy of the Little Design
State of your heart and order of the house
A genuine sharing for lasting friendship
Community immersed in the Spirit connected with the world
Consecrating to the Uncreated and Created Trinities
Joining Mary in her Fiat, finding in Joseph the fraternal care
Emptying of self to be filled with Jesus to proclaim the ‘Greatest Love of God’
Passion for Christ, compassion for humanity
Live a life of serenity by weaving the lace of diversity
Make peace with Creator and with creation
Thus, make your life a great celebration
