CLVE (Christian Living Values Education) Table of Contents: PRISM Vision-Mision Five Core Values Laudato Si ☆ PRISM (Paulinian Roots, Identity, Spirituality, and Mission) What is our vision as sole Paulinians? – to be God’s PRISMS; colorful manifestations of Christ’s light shining through the Cross in His Resurrected and Glorified Body. How can we do this? A. First, by understanding what each letter in the word P.R.I.S.M stands for and what are its accompanying implications. B. And second, by living out the implications that each letter invites us to be and do. Each letter of the word PRISM also encapsulates our distinctive make-up as: Paulinian-Chauvetians: SPC Sisters, Employees, Students in the education Ministry Rooted in God’s love in Christ, Catholic Tradition, School Rituals and Celebrations through the SPC Congregation’s Origin and History and in the Church with an Identity which embodies our being Jesus’ disciples, compassionate stewards, servant-leaders, community builders, and models of excellence, embracing a Spirituality that is Christo-centric Paschal, thus, increasing Mission endeavors, especially in places/aspects not preferred by others. We all have the mission to proclaim Jesus Christ as the Good News to all… we will continue to do it as Paulinian- Chauvetians so we can truly share the light of Christ, the Good News of Jesus Christ. ☆ Vision-Mission of the School: Impelled by the Charity of Christ, we nurture talents to be future-fit, transdisciplinary, outcome-driven, and compassionate Paulinians, appreciative of the nobler and finer things in life, in the service of the Church and society. ☆ The Five Core Values: CHRIST-CENTEREDNESS: Christ is the center of Paulinian life; he/she follows and imitates Christ, doing everything in reference to Him. CHARITY: Charity calls for going out of oneself for the good of the other; it is total, pervasive, and found in all moments of the various processes, services, and relationships within the campus. Urged on by the love of Christ, the Paulinian is warm, hospitable, and “all to all”, especially to the underprivileged. CHARISM: The Paulinian develops his/her gifts/talents to be put in the service of the community. It calls for integral formation, developing one’s talents and personality to the full, in a holistic manner stamped with its Christian character. COMMISSION: Like St. Paul, Paulinians are commissioned to share the Good News of Christ. The mission gives the Paulinians a sense of responsibility and a fidelity to duty even in small humble tasks. With this mission or life purpose, we actively work “to save” this world, to make it a better place to live in. COMMUNITY: The Paulinian is a responsible family member and citizen, concerned with building communities, promotion of people, justice, and peace, and the protection of the environment. ☆ Laudato Si: Several groups and platforms, like the Laudato Si’ Action Platform empowers the universal Church and all people of good will to respond to Laudato Si’, Pope Francis’ encyclical on caring for our common home. Exploring the ancient teachings of our faith in the light of today’s ecological crisis, Laudato Si’ teaches us that “everything is connected.” (LS 91) As our relationship with our divine Creator has been neglected, human relationships have faltered, and our world has grown hotter, less stable, and more lifeless. As a result, we all suffer, and the poorest and most vulnerable suffer above all. We face a “complex crisis that is both social and environmental.” (LS 139) There is hope. Pope Francis calls us to develop a “loving awareness” of this home we share and to act on the values we hold dear. (LS 220) Standing on the firm ground of “three fundamental and closely intertwined relationships: with God, with our neighbor, and with the Earth itself,” we commit to setting out “on the long path of renewal.” (LS 66, 202) We embrace our rightful place in the “order and dynamism” that our Creator ordained, and we urgently embark on new ways of living with “creativity and enthusiasm” (LS 221, 220).
