"Now there are varieties of gifts, but the same Spirit. To each one is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good. All the members of the body, though they are many, are one body. You are Christ’s body, and individually members of it."
- 1 Cor 12:4-7, as cited by Jan Cebula in Persistent and consistent: Religious at the U.N., published on Global Sisters Report June 23, 2015
