'This has taught us to love that he gave up His life for us; and we too, ought to give up our lives for our brothers and sisters' - 1 John 3: 16 God leads St. Emilie to contemplate and experience His “immense Charity” manifested in the mystery of the incarnation, revealed to St. Joseph. This contemplation of the love of God gave Emilie an attraction for practicing charity and impelled her to found a 'work' which would unite in it various works of charity. |
