"Each person is unrepeatedly unique. We human beings are not chips in a divine computer! Francis de Sales our model here, always took people where they were and how they were, affirming the good in each of them and leading them in the manner their personalities and temperaments suggested. He gave a special place to the Spirit's call or inspiration in the life of each person and at the different stages and states in that life. His only hope was that each person would realizes his/her unique potential; he expressed that hope in his classic way: "Let us be who we are and be it well! We believe that the people we serve are individuals, free loving and good. Our ministry in their behalf reflects that belief and is rooted there."
