Br. David

  • 為表示對生命感恩, 我承諾不再沉迷擁有, 反之, 我提醒自己一切所得皆為天主所賜。故此, 我們要活得感恩。
  • 為表示對生命感恩, 我承諾戰勝貪婪, 免得將需要和想要混淆。深信基本所需必被賜予。將白白得來, 白白分施。
  • 為表示對生命感恩, 我承諾戰勝冷漠。對每一機遇, 每一分一刻, 都能匠心獨運去回應。
  • 為表示對生命感恩, 我承諾要戰勝暴力, 明白到用暴力去對抗暴力, 只會帶來更多的暴力和傷亡。因此, 要棄絕暴力, 用温和的態度生活。
  • 為表示對生命感恩, 我承諾要戰勝恐懼。恐懼是一切暴力的根由, 若將所有恐懼當作機遇, 我便能勇敢地為未來的和平建下根基。
