Persons live in relationship. We come from others, we belong
to others, and our lives are enlarged by our encounter with
others. Faith is not simply and individual decision which takes
place in the depths of the believer’s heart. By its very nature,
faith is open to the “We” of the Church. We can respond in the
singular---“I believe”—only because we also say “We believe.”
