Imitating and Uniting with Christ
"All the works we perform in the name of Christ, for His sake, and in imitation of Him - whether they be fasting, vigil, patience, endurance of suffering or persecution, service sacrificial love, or crucifixion - are but a voluntary translation of the desire to imitate and unite with Christ ('Follow me'). They express communion in spirit, heart, and intention."
- Matthew the Poor in The Communion of Love, p. 113
