Introduction to Community Principles of Humanity… #2:
To be human is to be a person in relationship with others and to live in communities.
What are the challenges? Can they be overcome?
What types of community do we belong to? How does belonging to a community influence our
identity?

Jean Vanier
In the words of Jean Vanier: Belonging is important for our growth to
independence ; even further, it is important for our growth to inner freedom and maturity.
There is an innate need in our hearts to identify with a group, both for protection and
for security , to discover and affirm our identity , and to use the group to prove our
worthiness and goodness . (Becoming Human, p. 35) http://video.google.ca/videosearch?q=Jean+Vanier+%26+Belonging+&hl=en&emb=0&aq=-1&oq=#q=Jean%20Vanier%20&hl=en&emb=0&start=40

ourselves to live in love with Jesus “you will love life”

world

Catholics as Social Beings
Pope’s reference to solidarity points to our belief that we are social beings
Why do we need one another? To develop our ability to work and socialize
together For help and support To love and to be loved!! (Love= God’s presence)

How do we define Community and Society?
CCC (Catechism of the Catholic Church)› What is society and community?
A group of people bound together by a sense of unity that goes beyond each of them
An assembly that is once visible and spiritual Endures through time; gathers up in the past and
prepares for the future You receive “talents” that enrich your identity and
that you must develop to give back Respect those who are in authority who can change
over the common good

Don’t Be Fooled By Me
Please don't be fooled by me. Don't be fooled by the face I wear, for I wear a mask. I wear a thousand masks, masks that I'm afraid to take off and none of them are me. Pretending is an art that is second nature to me, but don't be
fooled, for God's sake don't be fooled.

I give you the impression I'm secure and that all is sunny and unruffled with me, within as well as without, that confidence is my name,
coolness my game, that water is calm and I'm in command and that I need no one, but don't
believe me, please don't believe me.

My surface may be smooth, but my surface is a mask--my every varying and ever concealing mask. Beneath it dwells the real confusion,
fear and aloneness. Beneath lies my smugness, my complacently, but I hide this--I
don't want anyone to know it.

Who am I, you may wonder? I am someone you know very well. For I am every man you meet
and I am every women you meet.
