Manzi elaborated on the 3 pillars saying that Christ entrusts us to act justly in all our activities. He said that justice entails giving a person what he/she deserves , giving an example of the constitution , Fr. Manzi said that life is a gift from God and he informed those who intend to destroy life to protect it and give the unborn children what is rightly theirs-' Life'. Fr.manzi added that God has given us the intelligence of protecting life in his ministry. He also added that love of God is given to us freely and people should not look for companionships in places of work but know that God is with them to help them accomplish their tasks. He warned the staff not to look for signs in all that they do or compliments as signs will appear for themselves when we know that we are doing the right thing and the marks can remain as a sign ! He went further explaining on the intention of God saying that God wants us to do ordinary things in an extra-ordinary way. He said we are instruments of evangelism and that the conviction that God is with us gives us the will to go ahead.Fr.manzi encouraged the staff to instill the three virtues of Acting Justly, Loving tenderly and walking humbly with their God in their lives. He asked God to give the staff strength to begin the ministry as Christ says that he will show his salvation to the upright'.
