The L'Arche Canada of Toronto, Ontario, Canada Daily Thoughts with Jean Vanier for Monday, 28 November 2016 "The Gift of Availability"
Availability for service is one of the most marvelous gifts that we can find in community. People who have this gift trust those in authority and community itself, and take on whatever is asked of them. It is marvelous for a community to have people with this child-like spirit, who are ready to take on anything that is asked of them. The gift of availability can be transmitted from one person to another, like a fire of love. It brings a community to life.[Jean Vanier, Community and Growth, page 261]
