It seems natural to me that the more complete the consecration the greater the responsibility for animation. This conviction was confirmed for us by the Holy Father, Benedict XVI, in his Address at the Audience given to the Chapter members on 31 March 2008: «Don Bosco wanted the choice of consecrated life to guarantee the continuity of his charism in the Church. Today too, the Salesian movement can only grow in fidelity to its charism if a strong and vital nucleus of consecrated people continues to form its core.»
