        Prayers for Various Occasions

CREED OF EDMUND's PEOPLE

                We believe the God fire burning in our hearts can transform both

            ourselves and our world.

   We believe we are called by God to a deep personal relationship with Jesus,

            the lover of all creation, as a brother.

   We believe we are called to be good news people.

   We believe we are called to be stewards of creation.

   We believe we are called to keep our hearts and minds open

             and attentive to God’s will.

   We believe we are called to witness by prophetic action

             to our option to the poor, the oppressed, and people at the margins.

   We believe we are called to immerse ourselves in the culture

             in which we live and work.

   We believe in community which is prayerful,

             inclusive and welcoming.

   We believe our international brotherhood is a witness to a search for

             global unity.

   We believe it is in facing our own fragility

             that we can accompany others in theirs.

   We believe in sharing eucharist and reconciliation that we are drawn

             beyond ourselves to the mystery of God.

   We believe others share the charism of Edmund,

             and are one with us in living it out.

   We hear the call to live justly,

             love tenderly and

                        to walk humbly with our God. Amen.
