One of
the greatest challenges before all the institutions of the Faith during this
Formative Age is the development of local communities, communities that are
characterized by tolerance and love and guided by a strong sense of purpose and
a collective will. It is these communities that serve as the environment in
which the capacities of all components — men, women, youth and children — are
developed and their powers are multiplied in unified action.
