Main Job, Sanctification of Self Alfllougls the Sodality of our Lady fulfills all the requirements of an organization--a group of people working for a specific end,it's more than that. It's a way of life. A faithful Sodalist finds that the threefold purpose, sanctification of self, sanctification of others, and defense of the Church, requires 24-hour alertness with Christ as his center and Mary as his model. Believing that you can't give what you don't have, the Sodalist performs daily contacts for spirit- ual growth--daily Mass and Holy Communion, I5 minutes each of mental prayer and spiritual reading, daily Rosary,morning and night prayers, examination of conscience, and a weekly interview and meeting. For convenience of meetings, the 202 Servite Sodalists are divided into class groups but the whole Sodality holds semester meetings, presided over by the four main officers. INFORMAL DISCUSSIONS, known even more informally as bull sessions, are a regular feature of the Sodality groups. Apostolate proiects and spiritual contact methods receive a thorough going-over by Pat Reeves, Paul Hendricks, Ronal Mack, and Jerry Jozwiak.
