Kozak, Fidelis Ewa2024-11-212024-11-212017Studia Ełckie, 2017, T. 19, nr specjalny, s. 751-755.1896-68962353-1274https://theo-logos.pl/handle/123456789/24019Consecrated life is a great gift for a person who is vocated, the universal Church and the local Church. This gift demands an answer expressed by personal life and life in the community. Consecrated persons as well as all belivers are exposed to improper influences of the modern and secularized world, which on the one hand facilitates easy living comfort, conformism and materialism, but on the other hand it suffers from the hunger of spirituality and manifests a profound request for authentic guides who can show us the way to real joy and happiness. Every community of consecrated life and every consecrated person is sent to testify to the closeness and presence of God in order to sanctify humanity. The sanctification of humanity leads through its own immersion in God, by faithfulness to the life, the vows of a religious order, and by the concern for the salvation of the whole world. It is the filling of this mission, according to the charism of one’s own order or institute, it gives the deepest sense of meaning leading to the true happiness.plCC-BY-NC-ND - Uznanie autorstwa - Użycie niekomercyjne - Bez utworów zależnychmissionevangelizationmeaning of consecrated lifeessence of consecrated lifemisjaewangelizacjaznaczenie życia konsekrowanegoistota życia konsekrowanegożycie zakonnemonastic lifeżycie konsekrowaneconsecrated lifewyzwania współczesnościchallenges of todaydiecezjediocesesdiecezja ełckaŻycie zakonne w diecezji ełckiej wobec wyzwań współczesnościConsecrated Life in the Diocese of Ełk in Relation to the Challenges of the Present DayArticle
