Content notes (or transcription) from beginning of the recording: I will speak about celibacy but in the context of L'Arche, which is very specific.

Our vocation for each of us is a journey of love. For a majority this means marriage. But for some people the call is to celibacy. I would like to reflect with you today on "what is celibacy?" as a gift of God in a Christian perspective.

Content notes (or transcription) from beginning of the recording: I am happy to have this opportunity to explore with you this gift of celibacy, especially in L'Arche.
