Rather, it is to be brothers among ourselves, to all people, and to all of God s creation. They should be courteous and cheerful and develop all the other virtues. Thus they can continually encourage one another to be men of hope, peace, and happiness. United in true brotherhood, they should reach a maturity that is fully human, Christian and religious. Every brother is a gift given by God to the brotherhood.
Brothers differ in temperament, cultural background, customs, abilities, gifts and specific traits.
They should accept each other as they are and as equals. The whole fraternity then becomes the privileged place for encountering God.
