Religious Life is a way of Christian living that always includes common fraternal life and public religious profession of vows that are recognized in Roman Church Law. Those who have made their profession (vows) are not, however, part of the Church hierarchy, unless they are also ordained priests. They commit themselves, for the love of God, to observe as binding certain counsels from the Christian Gospel.
