Corporate works exist to serve the Church: they are not called Catholic

Our lay manner of serving the Church also holds true for the activities promoted by the Work corporately. Their goals are purely apostolic. Their aim is to make Our Lord’s teachings better known, and they encompass the entire range of lawful activities that a group of citizens can engage in. They too, therefore, are a professional undertaking.

You realise that, as a consequence, we never give any of these corporate apostolic works, nor any of our Centres, the title “Catholic” or the name of a patron saint: in this way we make clear the lay character of our work, which does not hide its apostolic content in any way.
