Bishop Tobin on Our Calling as Servants of the Word

"One of the outstanding communities of religious women serving in the Diocese of Providence is named the 'Missionary Sisters, Servants of the Word.' The community, based in Mexico, is committed to evangelization and catechesis, especially among the Latino community. The sisters do great work, and we are grateful for their presence.

"'Servants of the Word.' While it’s the title the sisters use to describe their specific charism, it's a title that should apply equally to every Christian. We are all 'servants of the word' - the Word of God - and attention and obedience to the Word are building blocks of the Christian life."

In a recent commentary, Bishop Thomas J. Tobin, of the Diocese of Providence (RI), reflected on our calling as Servants of the Word.
