The friars are to be formed in the good use of social communication. It contributes to human development, to the acquisition of knowledge, to the sharing of information, to wider relationships, and, not least, to the work of evangelization. The friars are to use media maturely, responsibly, and moderately, taking care that its use not impoverish relationships with friars in the same Friary nor cause damage to one’s own consecrated life.
