The L'Arche Canada Foundation in Richmond Hill, Ontario, Canada from Jean Vanier's Daily Thoughts for Thursday, 23 June 2016 "Growth of Community"
Should the community, 'my people', be limited to those - both people in need and assistants - who live under the same roof? Doesn't it also include neighbours, people from the district, friends? As people grow in love, as their hearts become more open, and as a community in its narrow sense becomes mature, so does the reality of the community, of 'my people', get larger.[Jean Vanier, Community and Growth, page 91]
