This document discusses the importance of Christians letting their light shine by sharing their faith with others. It addresses challenges to evangelism both from outside and within the church. It proposes that Christians shine their light by coming into people's lives sensitively, building bridges, and witnessing through their lives. Christians should engage in dialogues of life, action, and theological exchange to strengthen their evangelism efforts and build basic human communities.

1. LET YOUR LIGHT SHINE BECOME THE MESSAGE AND THE MESSENGER

2. This theme has been divided into three sub-headings: ‘ I am the Light of the World’ ( Jn. 8: 12) ‘ You are the Light of the World’ ( Mt. 5:14) ‘ Let your Light Shine’ ( Mt. 5: 16)

3. “ LET YOUR LIGHT SHINE BEFORE OTHERS, THAT THEY MAY SEE YOUR GOOD WORKS AND GLORIFY YOUR HEAVENLY FATHER” Mt.5:16 Why do we need to shine? Why are we not shining? –Challenges to shine How can we shine before others in our times?

13. DIALOGUE FOR ACTION / DIALOGUE OF COLLABORATION It calls every Christian to work together with each and all for goals of humanitarian, social, economic or political nature which are directed towards the liberation and advancement of humankind. Can we as Sisters of St. Charles Borromeo truly engage in a “Dialogue of Life” which can provide us with the necessary stimuli to rethink strategies, to redefine our priorities and recreate positive action in the face of fundamentalism and fascist forces that have gripped our society?

16. “ The dialogue of Spirituality is an essential and crowning form of dialogue.” it is in sharing one’s deepest spiritual experiences that one comes closest to others and realizes the deep oneness in the Divine Spirit.
