The Center’s Method
The proper way to characterize the organization---and thus to already constitute the activity of Centro Aletti---is to place its study and research in a relational sphere, always “privileging interpersonal relationships” (Father General of the Society of Jesus, Peter Hans Kolvenbach, 15 July 1991). For this reason study is always tied to life because it takes the concrete churches and persons into consideration.
Work at the Centro Aletti therefore follows the rhythm of community life.
A Multi-Faceted Integrity
The center encourages focusing attention on the other, living and thinking together in order to understand and recognize one another. It is not in uniformity that unity is found, but in the intelligence of love that knows how to see in the cultures and specific characteristics of the different peoples the path to their transfiguration. In the measure in which they express themselves in gestures and words of communion, they are recognized as a revelation of the profound body of Christ hidden in history and revealed to the world from diverse sides.
It is in diversity that the Holy Spirit makes harmony resound, and the celebration of colours shine. |
