The L'Arche Canada in Richmond Hills, Ontario, Canada - Jean Vanier - Daily Thought - Sunday, 26 November 2017 "Taking Root"

The L'Arche Canada in Richmond Hills, Ontario, Canada - Jean Vanier - Daily Thought - Sunday, 26 November 2017 "Taking Root"
The more a community grows and gives life, sometimes by sending some of its members far away [to help elsewhere], the deeper its roots must grow into its own soil. Expansion has to be accompanied by deepening. The more a tree grows, the stronger its roots must be; otherwise, it will be uprooted by the first storm. (Jean Vanier, Community and Growth, page 155, L'Arche Canada | L'Arche Canada Foundation | Jean Vanier Online)
