  3. Fully Inculturated
  4. Friend of Ghebre Michael
  5. Deeply Human, Deeply Holy

If I had to pick a single Daughter of Charity to present to the sisters as a model, I would pick Rosalie Rendu. If I had to pick a single missionary to present to the confreres, I would pick Justin de Jacobis. Few missionaries have been as closely identified with their people as he was. His letters are filled with wisdom, deep pastoral charity, and a profound sensibility toward the people whom he served. – Robert P. Maloney, CM
