Former Superior General, Fr. John Sivalon Once Described God’s Mission This Way

A tangle of twigs lies drying in the sun,

And then a spark catches one, and she,

Astonished by divinity, topples and tumbles and ignites

Another and another and another and

Soon the whole tangle is aflame

Gibber jabbering in many tongues!

Chattering and blabbering until babbling comes

Singing – in so many harmonious parts even the twigs can’t count them!
