| | In such cases, where a continued apostolic lineage cannot be firmly identified, we believe that apostolic authority becomes re-vested in the collective people of God themselves, the literal Body of Christ and Spirit of Sophia who are guided collectively by that great Advocate for the people of God (Sophia). | | | One of the Vicar's prime activities on behalf of the Church is to conduct regular conversations and teaching in our Internet chatrooms, in audio teleconferences, and anywhere that he may be heard by "those that have ears to hear." We invite you to come and join in our conversations. | | | For this reason, our Brother in Christ Matthew, as Vicar, functions only as a representative and servant of the fundamental apostolic authority that is vested in the people of God themselves, as indeed does the Ecclesiastical Council. |

| | DANIEL COMBONI - AFRICA OR DEATH |
| | Nominated Pro-Vicar by the Holy See (1872) and then Vicar Apostolic (1877) of Central Africa, he led that vast and difficult mission with firmness and love until his death, which occurred in Khartoum, at the age of fifty, on 10 October 1881. | | | The spiritual strength that sustained this hope was the word of the Vicar of Christ, who having understood the value of that missionary vocation, said to him (October 1864) "Labora sicut bonus miles Christi pro Africa". | | | His widespread reputation for holiness, which continued after his death, led to the decision to open the informative process in Verona and Khartoum for the introduction of the Cause of beatification and canonization (1927). |
